Arm EMG Prosthetic Hand Controller Variant 23 Kit with Arduino Nano + Servo
Build a Wireless EMG-Controlled Prosthetic Hand with Arduino Nano & Servo
Every part needed, pre-tested for compatibility, with an AI build companion trained on this exact project. Shipped from Bengaluru in 3-5 days.
With this kit, you create a dual-channel electromyography system that captures forearm muscle signals, classifies hand open/close gestures in real-time, and transmits commands wirelessly to a servo-driven prosthetic hand. Designed for engineering students, hackathon participants, and researchers prototyping assistive devices, it bridges biomedical sensing and embedded control using the Arduino Nano platform.
What You'll Build
You'll assemble two Muscle BioAmp Candy EMG sensors, connect them to an Arduino Nano, and program a gesture classifier that distinguishes between hand open and close movements based on muscle activity. Decisions are sent via Bluetooth to a second Arduino Nano, which drives three SG90 servos to mimic a prosthetic hand's grasp. The final prototype responds to your own muscle contractions, demonstrating a functional assistive controller.
What You'll Learn
- Acquisition and filtering of EMG signals from forearm muscles
- Real-time gesture classification using thresholding or machine learning algorithms
- Wireless communication between Arduino boards using HC-05 Bluetooth modules
- Servo motor calibration and coordinated motion for prosthetic-like control

Who This Kit Is For
This advanced kit is tailored for B.Tech ECE/EEE and biomedical engineering students working on capstone projects or preparing for competitions like Smart India Hackathon. It’s also perfect for researchers at IITs, NITs, and Tinkering Labs prototyping low-cost assistive technology. Prior experience with Arduino programming and basic electronics is recommended.
Built and Backed by Compoden
Every Compoden kit ships with an AI build companion trained on this exact project — accessible via a QR code on the box, with WhatsApp and email backup. We've spent 10 years building projects for makers, schools, and institutions across India. If a part fails because of a manufacturing defect, replace it free within 7 days.
What if I get stuck during the build?
Our AI build companion guides you through every step, and you can reach our support team via WhatsApp for personalized help within hours.
Do I need prior experience with biomedical signals?
You should be comfortable with Arduino programming and basic circuits. The companion explains EMG concepts from the ground up, but some electronics maturity is expected.
Can this controller be integrated with a real prosthetic?
This kit provides a prototype framework. With additional safety testing and mechanical modifications, the principles can be applied to actual assistive devices — common in engineering final-year projects.
What if the Bluetooth connection drops during operation?
The companion includes debugging steps for interference, and you'll learn to program fail-safe behaviors like returning the servos to a neutral position on signal loss.
Two EMG channels classify hand open/close gestures to control a servo prosthetic hand wirelessly.
