Ask HN: Any recommendations for reliable EMG armband device?

Thalmic Labs, created Myo [1], the IP of which were sold to CTRL Labs later acquired by Meta. [2] Since then it seems there aren’t any reputable startups creating similar products. I found the OYMotion gForcePro+ [3], but I am not sure about the quality/reliability of the product.

I am wondering if there are any similar consumer-grade EMG armband with a dev SDK to access the raw EMG readings that you are recommending. The reason for accessing the raw EMG signals is to be able to develop my own classifiers.
