Myo Arm Band - Gesture Control for any Device

[@JaDo426]

My throat hurts just listening to this

[@Tech]

Really wanted to buy this but I can't have my songs being changed when i'm in the bathroom

[@6Degrees.business]

We are a Veteran owned. Therefore we love to help Veterans and others. MyMove created by 6Degrees enables those with dexterity loss(amputees or any kind of hand function loss) to use Smart-Devices such as computers, cell phones, tablets etc.. Hands Free! Which ultimately allows regaining independence, employability and of course a better quality of life. We would love for you to do a review on the MyMove if you could. Here is a 1 minute demonstration video on how the MyMove works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYK1ZJZofpifq5o I would love to find time for a quick chat. Thank you and looking forward to potentially collaborating with you. You can contact me by my email at [e-mail] All the best, Darren

Top rated comment. KZbin 7 years ago was a wild place.

[@AstroKitty]

I do like pterodactyls

[@JelleBootsma]

Me too

[@yals1545]

Same here, but one of my teachers at school doesn't believe that dinosaurs existed. I keep on trying to tell her to stay subscribed, but I don't think she will.

[@cupid1313pr]

yep, yep, yep

[@gm24ace]

More pterodactyls PLEASE!

[@KamakaziKamikaze]

Only if Ducky is there too. *crosses fingers* Please have someone understand who I'm referring to...

[@SwepEntertainment]

I agree! I can't wait till Saturday! :(

[@Kantardzhiev]

I feel like this is the best think I've watched, can't wait for 1b.

[@baijokull]

Yes, Scrap wars was definitely a win!

[@kunalsanwalka]

something no one has ever said until now- "wiping changed the volume and pulling my pants up changed the song."

Where is Scrap wars ?

[@pordzio]

Next week part b nad another week further part c

DOH', i never received the scrapyard 1a on my youtube sub box !!!

[@GuyRandom]

How come so many people even upvoted that comment? They clearly said in their last Scrapyard Wars video when the next parts will be released.

[@christianedwards3448]

Is it just me or is his voice off?

[@kamonic6571]

[@brningpyre]

RIP Luke's voice.

[@MeMyselfAndPi]

Kinda reminds of the Nintendo Power Glove that had similar problems 25 years ago.

[@HyperionEdits]

Why u so inactive?

[@HyperionEdits]

Garrett Bradley what did he do wrong?

[@GSB999]

HyperionCorporation He only comes back to youtube to make april fools videos. And the last april fools day he uploaded a video saying he was going to do daily videos. (which is what everyone wants!) basically by making that video he told all his subscribers that he does not care about them, and that he does not give a fuck.

[@IvanRiveraStagea]

Garrett Bradley Do you know him personally? I don't see how you can hold such grudge otherwise.

[@IvanRiveraStagea]

Garrett Bradley Gee, let it pass man. I am sure he puts lots more hours into this than any of us do.

[@de_stroyed]

Can't wait for the $300 gaming PC part 2. Lovin' that series.

[@FastforceRs]

Armin used this during one of his shows to sync with the visuals. It looked pretty awesome.

[@ChipmunkJLD]

I have the Myo. I can concur that I have the same problems with the unlocking feature. They should have it where you need to touch your thumb and pinky together and hold for 2 seconds to lock/unlock it. That way, even if you do it for a second, it won't recognize it until you actually hold the gesture. Like so Thalmic and everyone can see!

[@farmvillepolice]

A great unlock gesture would be to have the wrist bent in or out like at 3:00, then wave sort of like turning the dial at 3:10. That way you could do it quickly if you wanted - plus how often would you accidentally make that motion?

[@ghxstsenju]

I wish the lock gesture was to swipe your finger down like in sao

[@DeltaR9A2]

Watching this video and listening to Luke's voice made me clear my throat like fifty times. Get well soon Mr Luke ^^;;.

[@redtuzk]

Judging by his voice, I guess Luke stayed up all night to get that perfect Scrapyard Wars build.

[@Gansekommando]

I like how you guys add new captions in each intro.

[@MrHatoi]

Feel better! *checks upload date* Oh yeah, right...

[@AuntSteve]

I don't care what people say about them being unprofessional, those opening blurbs are great, keep it up!

[@HadesThePyro]

Poor Luke. all work no rewards. besides the paycheck.

[@apartment7332]

and the tons of shit linus lets him have

[@JoeGP]

Nice to see you finally fixed the contrast in the kitchen scenes, it was about time.

[@Shady]

I'm all for random tech that's cool... but I cannot see any practical use for this thing at all....

[@vyxxer]

It's only for miscellaneous purposes. Well... that and if you combine it with an Oculus and an omni-directional treadmill you get complete VR which is pretty fucking cool if you ask me.

[@MikeTrieu]

It's pretty awesome for myoelectric prostheses as it's fairly accurate and wireless, relatively low-cost, and modular for maximum flexibility, especially for a child who will go through several models of prosthesis in their lifetime.

[@ariffazha]

Shady well of course to make your presentation into another level ? or how your playgames or remotely devices ?

[@2cool0]

Shady well right now it might not be much but it definitely has potential. I feel like it would be better for something other than just computers and stuff.

[@jubbafudgy3854]

To turn it on you should have to touch all your fingers with your thumb, first index, second middle, third ring, and forth pinky. Pretty simple and I doubt there will be any situation where you'd do that on accident.

[@adalaza]

rip luke.

[@IgnoreSolutions]

I love the material design touches that have been implemented in the latest videos.

[@dc2008242]

I got a great idea for the company to make their unlock better..... JUST GET A FREAKING BUTTON!

[@MikeTrieu]

You can pretty much do that today with their API. Just use an off-the-shelf Bluetooth LE button to trigger the lock.

[@dc2008242]

Mike Trieu good, it better XD

[@Wind1000100]

Yes, I had that idea too.

[@EricGonzalo]

As another Myo owner, the issues you touched upon in this video are definitely true. Unlocking is an issue because it's still overly sensitive to other gestures. When I was sick and blowing my nose, it unlocked and performed other undesired actions. Hoping Thalmic Labs are able to get this device stronger soon!

[@billbosh]

I got an idea Take it off when your not using it

[@izze38]

hahaha yes! thank you xD

[@moxdownful]

[@comamierdadelano]

BillBosh dude, it has to "heat up" and calibrate Everytime, did you see the long process? totally not worth it either

[@mattinman8285]

I love the new intro with the unique messages :P

[@JAcevedo2580]

Am I the only one that prefers 1080p60HD instead of 4K?

[@lachlanh8098]

Do you have a 4K monitor? If not than why would you play at 4K?

[@JAcevedo2580]

Lachlan Hynd I have a ROG Swift, 1440P. And that's precisely why I prefer 60FPS 1080P over 4K. Only a few people have 4K or even 1440P monitors anyway.

[@RapperRank]

***** 1440p is more common than you think and is the sweet spot for me, im never going back to 1080p gaming. i max every game in 1440p

[@JAcevedo2580]

lekan adams ROG Swift (1440P 144Hz) Now THAT'S the sweet spot. This monitor is almost perfect. The only thing that would improve it is if it had a IPS panel. But I can live with TN for 144Hz, no problem.

[@m12158]

Lachlan Hynd No matter if you're running a 1080p monitor or a 4k monitor, you can still benifit from the higher bitrate of 4k.

[@Ideeem]

Hey, thanks for the "new" quieter intro, appreciate it.

[@LanceTheTrainer]

I feel like the intro audio should be slightly louder. Is it just me?

[@LanceTheTrainer]

***** Fair enough

[@lachlanh8098]

Exactly what I was thinking

[@blackflarez]

There is no intro?

[@fivetwelve7928]

True Lmao

[@Zyrexed]

I got to meet the inventors of Myo last year at the Google hub in Waterloo. They went to the same university as I do now and are really down to earth people.

[@kingSisu]

serious question, i dont have a thumb, does this work?

[@xXAssasinXx2456]

I would kill myself if I had no thumb. I wouldnt be able to use my mouse or my controller again.

[@kingSisu]

well i don't have them, but still i can play on consoles, average apm 80 in starcraft 2 and write 40 words per minute

[@lachlanh8098]

kingSisu How? I mean how would you move the analog sticks?

[@kingSisu]

Lachlan Hynd with my index fingers, and if you live without or with some sort of disability, no thumbs, no legs, whatever, you learn to adapt. same goes for other things as well like not haveing a car

[@aritakalo8011]

The hardware itself would probably work. It is just a EKG arm band measuring electric impulses in the arm muscles. It is not measuring anything directly from the fingers or the hand. Even the fingers are largely controlled by muscles in the forearm. So teoretically even a missing "ghost finger" can be detected, if the muscles operating the finger are working normally in the forearm. Probably need to ask your medical professional about the specifics of your condition. However I don't know, how adaptable to software algorhitms are for the device. So they might get confused by the differing anatomical situation. Then again according to Luke the algorhitms don't work that well even for a five fingered person, so there is that. In my opinion they should make this kind of bio feedback devices always trainable or self-learning. In this case, so that everyone can calibrate it to their specific arm and muscle structure and movement patterns. Otherwise the algorhitms will always be little bit of hit and miss due to variations between persons. They probably think that would not be "consumer friendly", so instead everyone gets the generalised algorhitms.

[@adri0356]

I love the motto in the start of this video

[@josephcantwell3552]

Your voice is wrong

[@EliteSniperTV]

SRSLY that intro is too perfect... its amazing

[@Ishraq_Choudhury]

I can't put it on the whitest part because I'm brown... 😢

[@junrocks9000]

.....

[@MikeTrieu]

That's okay, black goes with everything, so choose that model.

[@junrocks9000]

Mike Trieu no... that's not what he meant...

[@Ishraq_Choudhury]

Mike Trieu I'm not black.

[@MikeTrieu]

Ishraq Choudhury You don't have to be. It's supposed to look good on any skin tone. Brown, black, yellow, white, whatever.

[@aaron8862006]

GREAT new intro, guys!

[@thiccnutmcgee2250]

Wanna look like a total dweeb daily with no added functions? Buy this product

[@Necrodoxious]

Love the new intro, I thought the old one kind of sucked in regards to music choice. Aww man, this channel has changed so dramatically since 2008.

[@heichi13]

Why are you always ill, Luke?

[@nalluxD]

Linus is a bad boss.. That's why haha

[@chiragkhandelwal3758]

Yeah linus bully everyone in ltt he fires them all the time and watches them when they are in the toilet can't believe me watch previous videos he is cruel and in my opinion the cruelest after MKBHD in tech community on KZbin beware

[@codaassasin]

Because Linus. Linus is wet. For slick.

[@chiragkhandelwal3758]

***** ty but beware linus may be coming for u sorry typo "cumming"

[@boobio1]

AIDS

[@BungBruiser]

I was going to Unsubscribe but that pterodactyl reference just saved you for another day.

[@lufferov]

Shockingly bad video review IMO, I might as well have just read the script. You didn't demonstrate the device in use, or show us many of the things it can do. You didn't show in any practical way how it works (or doesn't). Basically, you didn't put any effort into this review.

[@Xyos212]

I agree, he didn't use it at all in the video.......

[@matthiasheyrman]

Xyos212 It shocks me to see how many people have become illiterate... he's sick, and I doubt that he has the energy to be constantly ready to perfectly show off the product. Stop being lazy and go into the cesspool of free information called the internet and look it up yourselves! You're not paying for this, and it's already tv quality, so if you any complaints, please keep them to yourselves unless they're actually constructive.

[@lufferov]

***** What does literacy have to do with anything? I did go the internet, that's where this video on KZbin exisits. How is reading more about this product going to demonstrate to me how it works in real life scenarios? That's where video has the advantage over the written word and it's exactly where this particular video fails miserably. As I said, this video is really nothing more than him reading a script via auto-cue. I could have just as easily read that myself on a web page. When I go to watch a video review, I expect to see the product being reviewed in action. I exepect them to show me the gestures being misinterpretted, he describes the act of locking/unlocking it, but at no point does he show it actually working (or not). That's why this video review is lazy!

[@matthiasheyrman]

Literacy as in the big letters during the introduction that say that Luke is sick! What is an introduction for of not to introduce something, as well as to describe it briefly. In this case, it shows technology, explaining that this is a technological show, the name of the account, and that the speaker is sick. Now, if you think what they're doing is easy, especially while being as such as Luke currently is, then stop being lazy, and do it yourself, and then you'll understand how annoying it is when, during a single off video, the world bitches that it's terrible. I don't understand how you idiots have the audacity to think that you're entitled to everything being perfect in your tiny worlds and your tiny minds. This isn't an advertisement, they aren't bring sponsored to do this. If they wanted to they could've not made this video, but then your worm-like intelligence would start crying and say that you deserve something today. This review isn't lazy, it's quite the opposite, it's tired and sick, give it a week, and of they don't make a better video, which they usually do, then go read the review yourself, unless you truly are illiterate!

[@thinkofwhy]

***** And this is a comment section, so why are you complaining about viewers posting comments in the comment section? Didn't you see Linus at the end of this video inviting viewers to leave comments, whether viewers liked or disliked it?

[@bmos02]

Wow. That intro was awesome!

[@FRMCBlack]

My physics teacher has one and he uses it during lessons to operate prezzie and power point, it works pretty well like that

[@iChamp5]

Get well soon Luke! Nice video! :)

[@badman5]

i got mine last week! its actually promising. Like Luke said they need work but as soon as this is accurate (its not too bad thou) and they have apps, this thing is easily worth the $250.

[@hexious]

I just want to give Luke a sick hug.

[@tinydevilgaming6174]

Omg ThanQ Linus for the recorder :D

[@FranxtheTanx]

The new intro is awesome!

Hey Linus, I'm doing a complete pc build off Amazon and i'll be sure to add your affiliate code to my account. Hope you get a good kick back, You deserve it! Thanks for all the great tips!

[@Coolio_Ash]

Out of all channels on KZbin, this is the one I can reliably check on for good content. I come here everyday, and leave the video happy that I'm subscribed to a very active and well-mannered group of people who legitimately enjoy what they are doing. Linus Media Group, thanks for making my (most likely) favourite KZbin channel. STUPID AMERICAN SPELLING. It said "favourite" was spelled wrong. :(

[@cooper8141]

Pterodactyls, now that's enticing I will stay subscribed Luke!

[@MrHohum9]

this seems really cool. if your biggest problem is the unlocking function, a easy update could fix that! this seems really sick!

[@DopamineMafiaCo]

Nice animation on the intro, Ed.

[@theblakeman9]

Thank you Linus for the Late Night Video satisfaction!!!!

[@mahnameisjaime1]

i was procrastinating on hw and was like "man i really want to watch a new tech video" and boom there this video was sitting in my sub box haha

[@theblakeman9]

Eyyo!!!! Same! :)

[@keyofb3528]

Get better soon Luke! (If your still sick)

[@necrisro]

I love the new intro !

[@aftershock2013]

God damn, a free XSplit paid registration? I Love you, linus... (PS: Hope you're better soon Luke :) )

[@stuartcarson9378]

Dude, I hope you feel better soon.

[@8SecondCerealTalk]

The old unlock gesture was bringing your pinky to your thumb. It barely worked at all. Not being able to unlock the device made it quite useless so it makes sense that Thalmic switched to a much easier gesture. I too have the same problems with the Myo unlocking all day long though. Thalmic needs to find a gesture in the middle that is not too easier nor impossible to perform.

[@tvolk131]

I'd really like to see another review of the Myo now that there's been some time since its initial release. If they've fixed all the gesture problems, I would drop $200 on one of them without a second thought. If these problems are fixed, I'd love to know about it.

[@Roxy_051]

when a Linus tech tips video becomes a ad for a Linus tech video your watching. Linusception

[@Esenfur]

One thing- Armin Van buren has used this device, and incorporated it within his DJ sets and the visuals.. Sometimes it not just game based!

[@Swiftive]

Love the new intro!

[@Cr0fter]

Feel better soon slick, you sound so sick it hurts my throat listening to you struggle to talk, hope you get through it soon man!, not that it bothers me its just i know how much it sucks to have your voice go like that, although you seem better than you were on the Wan show on friday

[@timetuner]

I really like this idea. I hope it's able to continue evolving. I do wonder why they went with an arm band though. It seems like there's much more detailed muscle/tendon movement at the wrists and it would feel more natural to work with buttons or touch pads (for locks and modifiers) on the wrists than on the forearms. Maybe the sensors aren't sophisticated enough to work reliably with the wrists just yet?

[@calvinmangus9423]

It is quite cool to imagine this device working, I know I have for about the last 2 years that I have watched it through the development process. Unfortunately it was no where near a home run, quite possible not even a base hit... Laziness, accompanied by inexperience with tech development is where I feel their shortfalls originated from.

[@MultiLagio]

Hope you get better Luke!

[@chadgdry3938]

I came across a bloke who used the SDK (?) to reassign the arm/hand gestures that were more natural for him. He was a programmer, so my recommendation to the Myo Developers, allow the owners to reassign gestures for what works for them...

[@dobby240]

I just love pterodactyls! Your keeping a subscriber my good man. This is very interesting but i'm sure its way off being a marketing hit.

[@samcoover155]

Feel better Luke!

[@bevvox]

To me it would seem that for things such as turning the device on and off, and locking and unlocking function one could simply implement an actual, physical button or a switch, as I don't think it would cause too much trouble to user experince

[@roadkill22ful]

Get well soon Luke!

[@Oreo_politics2015]

KZbin recommends this video 6 years later

[@noitulive]

Luke, I have to agree with you that the Myo needs work and hopefully some future firmware improvements to take the experience to the next level. Funny thing about having a lock or 'on' button, I had the same thought as well. Unfortunately for me though, my Myo died on me 3 days after opening the box. :(

[@ShiroKage009]

Seems like this needs the option for custom unlock gestures and some sophisticated, machine-learning algorithm that you can run through the day to detect your random gestures for the sake of calibration.

[@rparallel]

0:54 always good to do during a tech review or the end of a date.

[@mightyb8679]

get better soon luke!

[@Adam-tp8py]

Aww, Luke and his adorable sore throat.

[@Veptis]

Check leap motion again! The software has improved greatly and it is epic for VR now!!! Please do it!

[@cpu939]

get well soon Luke

[@lanceparrish6453]

Loved the video. A+ guys.

[@ClueyyHD]

love the newer intros!!

[@marvelcheeseman]

Like the new intro!

[@fliggopolis]

That answers my question from the last video about what was on his arm

[@Pleaseunderstand]

Sounds like a great device that's just waiting for the right software to take advantage of it. I could see it working very well in combination with some VR goggles as a more immersive form of control. 400$ to get two Myo armbands does seem a bit tough to swallow though.

[@UrsulDaniel]

nice material design intro :D

[@SamehKhan]

Wiping changed the song. Its because the MYO knows you need specific action-packed theme-songs for your wiping needs.

[@Tungsten30]

feel better Luke

[@UrsulDaniel]

i like the concept too, but it needs a mute option, to be able to do other stuff at home and vibration and sound maybe optimised. i wonder if ill be able to afford such a nice gadget

[@vyxxer]

So will you guys be doing a video combining Oculus, this and an Omni-directional treadmill to show us what some complete VR gaming looks like?

[@mathewritchie5598]

get well soon luke
