In TMSi — an Artinis company blog, you will find the latest trends in EEG and HD-EMG, related studies and applications, insights from the leaders of EEG/HD-EMG, not to mention detailed tips and tricks for your research!

What is HD-EMG?
Discover insights into the benefits of high-density electromyography (HD-EMG), its distinctions from bipolar EMG, and the methodologies employed for measurement.

Mains Interference
Electrophysiological measurements often include interference from mains electricity, typically 220 V/50 Hz in Europe and 110 V/60 Hz in other regions. Even when using battery-powered amplifiers, mains interference can still affect recordings due to various pathways. Understanding these interference mechanisms is key to minimizing their impact.

Tips for getting good EMG signals
EMG allows you to record electrical activity produced by muscles. Several factors can influence the signal quality while recording EMG signals. The quality of an EMG measurement largely depends on skin preparation, electrode positioning, and the quality of the EMG equipment.
This blog explains why these factors are important and how you can obtain good-quality surface EMG signals.

What Is Electromyography (EMG)?
This blog post contains everything you need to know about muscle structure, signal characteristics, types of EMG, and applications.

User Insight: Implementing Transcutaneous dEMG in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
An infant in an incubator within the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) is a space of both fragility and risk. These vulnerable babies are faced with challenges that could profoundly shape their futures or may lead to fatality. With their entire lives ahead of them, these infants deserve the utmost in care. Research is thus very important.
