Abstract
This paper presents the portable UVa Neuromuscular Training System (UVa-NTS). It is a myoelectric real-time system for research and upper-limb training. A set of training tools is included: this paper focuses on the game Myo-Pong, a simple graphical table-tennis game included in the UVa-NTS. To measure the performance, a set of control parameters is explained. Thus, Myo-Pong demonstrates the capabilities of the UVa-NTS as a myoelectric real-time system for training and for playing by means of myoelectric control.
