Electrodes that can be used to determine a first type of physiological signal and a second type of physiological signal are disclosed. The first type of physiological signal can be electromyography (EMG) signals produced by activity of muscles and tendons. Identification of hand movements can be supplemented with pose detection circuitry such as inertial measurement units (IMUs). These EMG signals can be processed to identify hand movements and recognize gestures associated with those hand movements. The second type of physiological signal can be electromyography (ECG) signals produced by the heart. The electrodes can be used to detect EMG and ECG signals dependent upon a current configuration of sensing circuitry. The electrodes can be used to determine a measurement quality associated with the EMG signals.
