This was the original prototype of OpenMuscle (OM12 + LASK4), developed to prove out muscle-based finger tracking using off-the-shelf parts and MicroPython.
It remains here for archival purposes and for those referencing:
- Early research and design iterations
- Press and academic mentions (42+ stars)
- Explorations in UDP-based muscle telemetry using hall effect sensors
- 12 Hall Effect Sensors (49E)
- 6 Sensor Cells, dual-input
- PCB 5.3.0
- ESP32-S2
- MicroPython
- 1200 s/s via UDP transmission
- 4 pistons
- 4 push buttons
- OLED screen
- ESP32-S2 Microcontroller
The latest version is LASK5, with joystick and modular controls.
- Create an open-source forearm bracelet (OM12)
- Build a hand gesture labeling device (LASK4)
- Create UDP-based data capture tool
- Build a hosted data training server
- Raise community awareness
- Create pre-production versions of both devices
