A wearable device includes an analog-to-digital converter (ADC) configured to digitize biopotential signals received from biopotential-signal-sensing channels. The wearable device also includes a supplementary processor that samples the digital biopotential signals from the ADC. The supplementary processor sends the digital biopotential signals to a buffer until a determination is made that a particular number of the digital biopotential signals is stored in the buffer. Additionally, the supplementary processor transmits an indication to a primary processor that the particular number of the digital biopotential signals is stored in the buffer. In addition to the ADC and the supplementary processor, the wearable device includes the aforementioned primary processor. The primary processor is configured to operate in a low-power mode before receiving the indication and, after receiving the indication, process the particular number of digital biopotential signals from the buffer to detect in-air hand gestures performed by a user of the wearable device.
