Getting started with the iNEMO™ STEVAL-MKI062V2
Introduction
The STEVAL-MKI062V2 is the second generation of the iNEMO modules family. It combines
accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers with pressure and temperature sensors to
provide 3-axis sensing of linear, angular, and magnetic motion, complemented with
temperature and barometer/altitude readings, representing the new ST 10-degrees of
freedom (DOF) platform.
This document provides a quick start guide for iNEMO PC software and graphical user
interface (GUI).
