+====== Linear Envelope ======
+Computing the onset of an EMG signal can be quite tricky. In this example, we describe a pipeline for a straightforward estimation of EMG onset based on the EMG envelope and [[Visual3D:Documentation:Pipeline:Event_Commands:Event_Threshold|Event_Threshold]]. This is not a definitive definition, but simply a starting point for the user.
+{{:Emg2.jpg}}
+Three event labels are identified on this figure. The yellow and red events specify the "rest period". This is arbitrary and is specified by the user explicitly. The blue event label is the first threshold crossing above the "median + 3*standard deviation".
