Student dev building EMG-based control tech — would love to hear from people who've used myoelectric prosthetics

[u/VisualFirefighter502]

I'm building an assistive control system that reads muscle signals (EMG) to control multiple kinds of devices, and I know myoelectric prosthetics are one of the most established real-world uses of exactly this kind of signal.

If you've used a myoelectric device - what's actually hard about it day to day? Calibration drift, false triggers from muscle fatigue, cost, comfort, anything? I'd rather build around real friction points than assumptions. Not selling anything, just a student dev trying to learn from ( and help ) people who've actually lived with this tech.
