Shimmer provides a range of advanced and enabling software applications to support users of the Shimmer platform. Our advanced software, including our flagship software, ConsensysPRO, allows users to quickly configure Shimmer for data acquisition, storage and display of sensed data from multiple Shimmers simultaneously. In additon common data processing algorithms and realtime event markers can be applied to the data. Our enabling software allows users to quickly configure Shimmer for data acquisition, storage and display of sensed data captured from a single Shimmer unit. Furthermore Shimmer makes available APIs in C#, Java and Android as well as development drivers in MATLAB and LabVIEW to allow for the further development of applications with the Shimmer platform.
Shimmer firmware is available open source on Github.
We advise all first time Shimmer users to purchase a Development Kit initially to ensure they have all the tools and equipment required to get started with Shimmer.
