The present paper, explains the evaluation system used in candidates to use a myoelectric prosthesis control, for upper limb amputation above the elbow joint. Which bases its operation on strength levels as a result to voluntary isometric contractions, generated by both biceps and triceps muscles. This system is classified into 2 methods of evaluation; online and evaluation by processing data. Both use statistical methods to determine variations in the responses obtained during the training process trough a virtual environment with the aim of establishing whether there is progress compared to the training time. Also determine whether the user is able to generate voluntary isometric contractions, for the control of a myoelectric prosthesis.
