Measure your muscle power. Perform "6 million dollar" bionic music. Developed by the inventors of the renowned BioMuse, this sensor measures the EMG of your arms and legs.
Use the BioFlex with a wireless Wi-microSystem in all cases to operate conveniently without tether and ensure electrically safe operation (see application notes below). See also the Curl sensor.
Application examples
- Combines perfectly with the BioBeat and BioWave. Become zen and still perform.
- Add intensity to your musical performance by tweaking your sound through muscle tension and more body physiology.
Link dance to audio-visual expression.
- For whole-body expression go bodysuit, capture all your joints' movements and express with all your extremities.
Combine with
BendMicro,
BendMini and
BendShort sensors from finger to toe.
Add a GForce3D-3 on your feet
and hands to capture kicks and punches.
A Hot will keep
you in check of your body temp. Top it all off with a
TouchGlove on both hands
to always be able to touch-control your performance, even when you're doing a handstand.

Application notes |
The BioFlex sensor is to be used only with extreme caution. It is intended for research purposes only and not intended for any medical purposes whatsoever.
- The BioFlex sensor must only be plugged into a battery powered, wireless I-CubeX digitizer (eg. the Wi-microDig or Wi-miniDig) manufactured by Infusion Systems and not any other digitizer.
- The BioFlex sensor must only be connected as shown in the diagram on the digitizer.
- The wireless I-CubeX digitizer used with the BioFlex sensor must only be powered by a common 9V battery as used in consumer goods or an I-CubeX BatteryPack.
- Only I-CubeX sensors may be connected to the digitizer that is used for interfacing the BioFlex.
- When using the BioFlex sensor, I-CubeX products may not be connected in any way to the electrical power grid or any other high voltage source.
Any violation of these instructions nullifies any warranty (express or implied) and nullifies any liability or culpability (express or implied) of Infusion Systems Ltd.. Any violation of these instructions can result in electrocution, severe injury, or even death.
Using the sensor with the Wi-microSystem not only ensures electrically safe operation but also enables you to use the sensor without being tethered to your computer or MIDI device.
