This document discusses sensing and processing of bio-metric signals for use in low cost bio-robotic systems. It describes how bio-metrics work using input sensors, a processing unit, and an output interface. Bio-robotic systems are needed to replace humans in hazardous conditions and perform high precision tasks. Prosthetics are discussed as a type of bio-robotic system that can replace injured body parts either passively or actively using sensors. Electromyography and electroencephalography are described as sensing technologies that can be used in prosthetics. The document concludes that electromyography offers an effective low-cost solution for prosthetics, though customization is needed and signal strength depends on variable user factors.
