On Windows, the Myo Trainer is launched by running the 

MyoTrainer.exe

 file. If you encounter an 

error launching the trainer, you may need to first install the .NET Framework. You can find an 

installer for the .NET framework in the 

drivers/

 directory of the SDK. 

On Mac OS X, the Myo Trainer is launched by running the 

myo-trainer

 application at the root of 

the SDK. 

The trainer itself is intended to be self explanatory and will guide you through the training process. 

Before you train for the first time, we strongly recommend you watch the 

How To Train Your

 video found on the Myo developer website.

 application found in the

hello-myo

 application is a basic console application that demonstrates Myo's orientation, pose
