3D printing has revolutionized the manufacturing process reducing costs and time, but only when combined with robotics and electronics, this structures could develop their full potential. In order to improve the available printable hand designs, a control system based on electromyographic (EMG) signals has been implemented, so that different movement patterns can be recognized and replicated in the bionic hand in real time. This control system has been developed in Matlab/ Simulink comprising EMG signal acquisition, feature extraction, dimensionality reduction and pattern recognition through a trained neural-network. Pattern recognition depends on the features used, their dimensions and the time spent in signal processing. Finding balance between this execution time and the input features of the neural network is a crucial step for an optimal classification.Ingeniería Biomédic
