Product Overview

MyoResearch XP Master is the most comprehensive software solution for EMG and sensor related analysis available on the market. Unlike other packages, MyoResearch XP Master provides all the tools and functions needed for complex scientific research, as well as numerous preconfigured and ready-to-use report solutions for essential EMG and biomechanical sensor related applications. Advanced users can create their own acquiring and analysis routines within seconds. Depending on the hardware configuration, up to 32 channels can be easily combined and classified, processed in realtime, and analyzed by automatic reports. MyoResearch XP Master can be used with all Noraxon amplifier products.

List of Application Protocols

Anatomical maps simplify the muscle choice. Numerous measurement options like real time processing, Feedback, synchronized video, and external triggering are supported.

The measurement monitor displays all detected raw/real time processed curves and also all activated options like video, feedback histogram and electronic test/training assistant.

Data Acquiring and Management

Along with the raw data acquiring realtime processing functionality, rectification, smoothing/filtering and amplitude normalization (MVC) are all supported. Realtime FFT spectrums, biofeedback animation and a computervoice assistant are all available options. Multiactivity recording allows sampling in sequences of different activities within one record. Digital video (via USB or FireWire) can be synchronized and recorded with the signal data. Any digital camera system is supported.
The database system is designed for multimedia file management and allows the combined management of data records, videos, pictures and RTF documents (like MS Word). Comprehensive export/import functions are supported for increased flexibility in data communication between various programs.

Signal Processing Routines

For post hoc processing, numerous signal processing digital filters, such as MVC-normalization or the unique ECG removing routines are supported. Synchronized digital videos are used to define analysis periods for complex movements. Rescaling, zoom and overlay functions allow for a quick analysis of selected record intervals.

Provides the ability to combine signal processing
routines with save/load function.

Record viewer with activated video and amplitude histogram. Access to the Record Editor and Signal Processing Menu.

Analysis Reports

MyoResearch XP offers a set of predefined standard reports covering the most commonly used amplitude, frequency and timing calculations. A key feature in the program design is the sophisticated period definition system for analysis periods. It can be combined with a trigger to analyze TTL / foot switch, angle or other movement signals. Pre-configured analysis frames can be customized by mouse click. Analyses graphs can be compared to graphs from other records (curve overplot, test and retest comparison, etc.). An integrated normative data menu allows a quick generation of normative databases. Export routines to clipboard (excel, etc.) or as internet compatible HTML documents allow an external exchange of findings.

Pre-configured Analysis Reports:

EMG standard analysis
Symmetry comparison
Coordination analysis
Average EMG patterns
Feedback/ Incontinence
Spectrum report
Frequency/ Fatigue analysis
EMG and Isokinetic report
Clinical gait analysis
Wavelet analysis
Template training analysis
Timing & Onset analysis
Ergonomics module
Bilateral gait
Jump tests

A powerful report editor allows skilled users to create their own self-written, analysis reports that perfectly fit their needs. Besides capturing EMG signals, MyoResearch XP Master can also be used to analyze other biomechanical signals like force, acceleration, and angle. All major analysis parameters are supported or can be created by the report editor. MyoResearch XP Master can serve as a universal measurement and analysis solution for biomechanical labs.

Automatic Application Protocols

MyoResearch XP Master is equipped with a separate program mode called "Application Protocols". It allows the user to perform automated measure and analysis routines: within 4 mouse clicks even complex setups like gait analysis, fatigue studies or time and MVC normalized averaged EMG patterns can be performed and analyzed by an online analysis report. This wizard driven program, enables even non-EMG specialists to quickly and accurately perform EMG measures and use it as an everyday routine in clinical settings or other routine tasks. A simple to understand "traffic light principle" with a green main action button and a red stop button operates all protocols in the same way:

The main benefit of this green/red button concept is that the application doesn't matter; the operation of a protocol can be learned, understood and performed in 10 minutes. Speed is combined with flexibility, because an optional "Modify" button allows the user to adjust each automated protocol step to specific customer needs.

Easy Use of Application Protocols

Below is an example of just how easy it is to use. In four easy steps you can be on your way to better data acquisition and analysis of EMG and biomechanical sensors.
