Not sure why Meta called EMG as sEMG, this just going to mess up search and confuse people.
There are many useful surface electromagnetic (EM) waves for physiological signal detection, for examples ECG, EMG, EEG, and together they are referred to ExG with different magnitudes ranges and characteristics. But people don't refer to them with s initial sECG, sEMG or sEEG because by their very definitions they are belong to surface EM waves category.

I actually had the chance to demo this tech last year and it was really interesting. They had a feature where if you wrote something on paper it was transcribed to the computer. You could control the PC by tapping your thumb to your index finger or closing a fist.
In hindsight it seemed stupid for meta to invest so much in AR/VR but the techn they release continues to get better.

EMG[0] require a needle in the muscle, sEMG is an improvement.
