Abstract

The disclosed systems and methods are generally directed to interpreting neuromuscular signals. The system includes (A) a plurality of neuromuscular sensors that detect a plurality of neuromuscular signals from a user and (B) at least one multiplexer in communication with the plurality of neuromuscular sensors and that is capable of dynamically adjusting neuromuscular sensor processing based on neuromuscular signal characteristics. A computer processor is programmed to (i) receive a set of neuromuscular signals from the plurality of neuromuscular sensors, (ii) determine, via a real-time system, at least one signal characteristic included in a neuromuscular signal, where the neuromuscular signal is associated with a first neuromuscular sensor included in the plurality of neuromuscular sensors; and (iii) dynamically reconfigure the processing of neuromuscular signals from the plurality of neuromuscular sensors based on an output from the multiplexer. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
