This dataset contains data for hand gestures recognition recorded with 3 different sensors. sEMG: recorded via the Myo armband that is composed of 8 equally spaced non-invasive sEMG sensors that can be placed approximately around the middle of the forearm. The sampling frequency of Myo is 200 Hz. The output of the Myo is a.u DVS: Dynamic Video Sensor which is a very low power event based camera with 128x128 resolution DAVIS: Dynamic Video Sensor which is a very low power event based camera with 240x180 resolution that also acquires APS frames. The dataset contains recordings of 10 subjects. Each subject performed 3 sessions, where each of the 5 hand gesture was recorded 5 times, each lasting for 2s. Between the gestures a relaxing phase of 1s is present where the muscles could go to the rest position, removing any residual muscular activation. Note: We did not upload the raw data (*.aedat) for the DAVIS being those files very heavy. All the information for the sensor has been extracted and can be found in the two files *.npz and *.mat.
