  • Abstract
    We propose the demonstration of a hardware prototype of an emulator of peripheral nerve, eventually intended for testing bio-potential recording systems. The results of live interactions with the prototype are observed on a customized software based oscilloscope. The emulator represents a real nerve in terms of impedances, electrode voltages and action potential propagation characteristics.
