The data coming from the FMG sensor and the EMG sensors are used to estimate the pose of the arm. When the elbow is flexed this causes a resistance change of the FMG sensor. When the wrist is flexed this results in an emg signal. Both are measured and transmitted to the PC which displays the estimated pose.
A paper has been published about the 3D printed EMG electrodes:
