ShimmerCapture/Shimmer C# API
Software DevelopmentThe ShimmerCapture application allows users to display and save data received from Shimmer devices. The application allows the configuration of a range of parameters on the Shimmer3.
ShimmerCapture also works in conjunction with the Shimmer3 LogAndStream firmware to allow simultaneous streaming of data over Bluetooth and logging of data to the on-board microSD card.
The Shimmer C# API is the source code upon which ShimmerCapture was built and is available to all Shimmer customers from our Downloads Section
