Abstract
This paper (Part II of two) presents an experimental demonstration of the performance achieved by implementing the mathematically derived optimal myoprocessor described in Part I. Almost an order-of-magnitude improvement over the common myoprocessor is obtained. Excellent agreement of the experimental results with the analytical predictions verifies the mathematical analysis. The relative contributions of each stage of the optimal myoprocessor are examined. A discussion and comparison of several existing and proposed techniques for myoprocessor improvement are presented.Keywords
