The aim of this work is to design active forearm prosthesis. This prosthesis scans myoelectric signals from upper limb, especially from forearm. Signals are processed by analog filters. Muscle contraction is evaluated by the Arduino, which also controls the servomotors. Motor unit is consisted of two motors. It is therefore prosthesis with two degrees of freedom.
