Description

Description
The dataset contains 3 sets of raw surface EMG signals recorded while performing pushups. The participant performed pushups till he could no longer continue. The three recordings were performed in 3 seperate instances seperated by sufficient time to allow for recovery. the numbering 1,2,3 is in temporal order

Signal Description
The signal consists of 8 sEMG channels from  Upper Trapezeus (Channel 0 and 1),  triceps (Channel 2 and 6 ),  Brachioradialis (Channel 3 and 4)  and biceps ( channel 5 and 7) muscles. Each sensor channel records at a frequency of 1000Hz. 
All 8 channels are synchronised. 

Data Format
Data is  in the from of a list of JSON payloads each consisting of 200 data points each. 

Minimum Recomended data processing procedures
Pre-Preperation --> Convert from JSON to DataFrame
Band pass filter --> 20 - 450 Hz
