Hello there,
First I will start by saying that this isn't strictly an electronics project, just using a small dabble of electronics to achieve a goal. I have used ECG's before but before most of the circuitry was provided already in order to get the information dis.played on a graph on a computer, so I am unsure if I should pursue this project idea or not, depending on how difficult it turns out to be. As I said it is not an electronics project so ideally I would be keeping it as simple as possible as to not waste too much time trying to make it work.
But anyway, I want to be able to use muscle readings as a means of controlling sound. This would potentially be done through an Arduino and Max MSP / PD. So all that I really require are values to be read into the Arduino that will have a decent variation in order to provide more depth of sound.
Just looking to know from anyone with experience if this is even a possibility or whether the readings would even have a wide enough range. This is just a thought process at the moment, I was just trying to think of interesting analogue signals I could use to manipulate sound.
If so, would the required circuitry be complicated or could this be achieved with a relatively simple set up? I am just considering in my mind whether this idea is more trouble than it is worth or not.
Thanks for any help, I know its a little vague, but it is all currently just ramblings in my head.
