VR Wrist EMG Interface & System Lab — Hobby Project
I’ve been exploring wrist EMG as an input path for VR/AR. This post shares a small, reproducible pipeline:
EMG AFE → MCU with DMA/ISR preprocessing → Linux SBC Rust service → record→analyze→replay tools → metrics dashboards.
The aim isn’t a SOTA classifier; it’s system engineering: clear interfaces (UML/ICDs), timing budgets, and testability.
Repo: https://github.com/aarzhoca/vr-wrist-emg-lab
What’s in the repo
- A host Rust service exposing
/ingestand Prometheus/metrics - Record/replay Python tools for deterministic debugging
- Text UML/ICD notes to align HW/FW/ML
- A firmware placeholder describing DMA/ISR capture, fixed-point preprocessing, and transport
Quick start (host service)
```bash cd host_rust_service cargo run
New shell:
python tools/record_replay/record.py –outfile data/run1.bin python tools/record_replay/replay.py –infile data/run1.bin –endpoint http://localhost:9090/ingest
