Thin, soft, and elastic electronics with physical properties well matched to the epidermis can
be conformally and robustly integrated with the skin. Materials and optimized designs for
such devices are presented for surface electromyography (sEMG). Furthermore, the findings
enable sEMG from wide ranging areas of the body. The measurements have quality
sufficient for advanced forms of human-machine interface.
