hello people...
We are working on a project to control certain home appliances such as a tv using eye movements. The first step of this project involves the extraction of signals caused by the human body due to eye movements.
since these signals are extremely small, (250 to 1000uV) we had to amplify them. We designed an instrumentation amplifier of gain around 1000 using LM741 op-amps. However still we couldn observe the signals on the CRO in our lab. all that we could see was noise.
We tried to purchase instrumentation amplifier such as AD620 and Ad622. Unfortunately they are not available to us.
What possibly could have gone wrong? and pls offer suggestions on how our task can be accomplished.
