Biopac-EMG100C

The BIOPAC EMG100C device records activity from large and small muscle groups, including facial EMG for analyzing emotional responses. Facial electromyography (fEMG) typically uses surface EMG electrodes to detect activity at the zygomaticus (cheek), orbicularis oculi (around the eye), and/or corrigator (brow).

The BIOPAC EMG 100C sensor is compatible with iMotions EMG Module.
