Development Kit
The Skywire® Sensor Shield provides an affordable, flexible way to
build connected prototypes using Arduino compatible development
kits. For applications requiring cellular connectivity, the shield plugs
into the development board and, in turn, accepts a plug-in NimbeLink
Skywire end-device certified modem, providing quick cellular access.
This first-in-the-industry plug-in cellular solution is easier and more
compact than USB or other modem connection options, and the
certified Skywire embedded modem eliminates the cost and complexity
of obtaining carrier certifications.
The NimbeLink shield comes with four integrated MEMS sensors for
easy proof-of-concept development. Sensors include:
•
•
3-axis accelerometer
Temperature
•
•
Atmospheric pressure
Humidity

Description
Skywire Sensor Shield
The kit also includes two push-buttons switches, a light sensor and
potentiometer for easy interactive demonstrations. This kit provides
an SSL secured, cellular connection from sensor to cloud. Your sensor
data can be viewed on several web-based cloud services including
device location based on cellular triangulation.
The kit is compatible with software from several vendors for an easy
out-of-box, cellular solution.
The shield also provides standard Arduino headers. These accept any
of hundreds of compatible expansion boards allowing the addition of
capabilities like GPS, LCD displays, motor controllers, and more. The
kit includes a 12v DC power supply and antenna.
