Consensys IMU Development Kits

Description

The Shimmer3 Consensys IMU Development Kit provides an intuitive solution in body worn applications. The Shimmer3 IMU comes with integrated 9 DoF + altimeter inertial sensing via accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer, each with selectable range. The Shimmer3 IMU also boasts an integrated motion processor for on-board 3D orientation estimation as well as 5 colored LEDs to indicate device status and operating mode.

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.
