Blebrick 9-Axis IMU
SKU 7300-BLEBIMUItem type: Assembled, Robotics & gaming, Shields & add-onsBlebricks
Description
| The Blebrick IMU is a 9-axis orientation sensor combining an accelerometer, a gyroscope and a magnetometer, each on 3 axes. You can set the sampling interval, configure sensor sensitivity and range, and change the units of measurement. You can also choose the type of output: orientation data (quaternions, Euler angles and so on), linear acceleration, or the raw accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer data. Applications: motion detection, robotics, Industry 4.0, indoor navigation, context awareness. |

| Blebricks: instant prototyping for IoT, smart sensors and RFID | |
|
The internet of things is finally within everyone’s reach. Blebricks are smart bricks built on patented technology: put them together and you create new electronic devices that talk to each other wirelessly. The technology lets you build devices even without any background in electronics or programming. Prototyping is instant, which is why it appeals to anyone who wants to build a device of their own quickly and simply. How does it work? It could not be simpler Each Blebrick performs one specific function. You can choose from a wide range of sensors, actuators, power and communication devices: motion sensors, environmental sensors, CO2 sensors, infrared sensors and air quality sensors, Wi-Fi, Ethernet and LP-WAN communication devices, to name just a few. To add the functions you want, simply clip the Blebricks together. They configure themselves to work as one, and your device prototype is ready straight away. You can view the sensor data and interact with it (locally, from your smartphone) using our MakeApp for Android devices. And if you want to build a custom app, you can do so with MIT App Inventor. Finally, you can interact with your Blebricks wherever you are, simply by connecting them to the Internet and logging in to the Bricksboard portal. This highly innovative technology cuts more than 90% off the time and cost of development in going from idea to product. And because they draw very little power, Blebricks also suit battery-powered, portable or wearable devices. The modular nature of the Blebricks means a finished product that is cheaper and faster to build. Take a look at our Fast Route To Production. |
