Muscle BioAmp BisCute is a cute DIY EMG sensor for precise ElectroMyoGraphy (EMG) at an affordable cost. It comes with a fixed gain of x2420 and BandPass filter of 72Hz - 720Hz. To record the EMG signals you can use any standalone ADC like ADS1115 or any microcontroller development board with an ADC of your choice like Arduino UNO/Nano.
Muscle BioAmp Biscute has been created using KiCad and all the design files can be found under hardware folder. Images below shows a quick overview of the hardware design.
