Shimmer3 Consensys IMU Development Kit - Seven (7) Sensors

Features & Benefits

• Very low power consumption, light weight, and small form factor.
• Slide-switch for powering Shimmer on/off.
• Connects via local storage with a microSD card.
• 24MHz MSP430 CPU.
• Internal and External connectors for expansion and interfacing with third party sensors.
• Best data quality - Integrated altimeter and 9DoF inertial sensing via accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer, each with selectable range.
• Integrated motion processor for on-board 3D orientation estimation.
• 5 coloured LEDs across 2 locations to indicate device status and operating mode.
• Choose between low noise accelerometer, wide range accelerometer, or both.
• Integrated Li-ion battery management.
• JTAG debugging mode available.
• Expansion header for alternative radio.

All signals can be measured simultaneously and in real-time. With our ConsensysPRO software data can be streamed for live visualization, while raw data can also be logged to an SD card and accessed. 

Kit Contents

All development kits come equipped with the necessary accessories (straps, leads, electrodes, etc.) you need for your development. For a complete breakdown of what each kit contains please see the specs tab below. Now available for one to fifteen Shimmer3 IMU sensors depending on the number of devices you require. Larger kits available on request.

Both logging data to your Shimmer's SD card and streaming via Bluetooth are now supported by Consensys. Shimmer firmware is available open source on Github.

Functional Base
