Low‐cost traditional prosthetic legs, available worldwide, can make walking and stair climbing possible but still difficult. This article presents the hardware implementation of the surface electromyography (sEMG) powered prosthesis actuation (PPA) system using a learned neural network algorithm based on recurrent neural network (RNN), which is used to train sEMG benchmark databases, and predict joint angle. This implementation was created based on sEMG signal measurements. The data were collected from three benchmark datasets describing different subjects during performance, and analyzing various gait patterns were used to construct the neural network and reduce significant model errors in a real‐time setting. Processing circuits, interfacing the output with the controller board, signal amplification, motor driving circuits, and single‐board computer programming are included in the implementation.
