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).
