SparkFun OpenLog Artemis as a stand alone board

Development Boards Artemis

Hello,

I honestly could not understand, is the SparkFun OpenLog Artemis a stand alone board?

https://www.sparkfun.com/products/16832

I am going to develop a device that I can wear and attach to my back with two vibrators. I want the IMU to constantly monitor my orientation and when I am bending my back two vibrators will apply vibration for a short period of time, reminding me to sit up straight.

It seems to me as it could be the perfect board for it.

Will I need an external development board (arduino/esp32/others)?

I want to use the microSD to analyze the data afterward and make graphs to monitor the changes, hopefully not bending my back and causing back pain…

Do you think such project can be done using the SparkFun OpenLog Artemis?

Thanks!

Hi stamstamnitzan,

Yes, you can use it as a stand-alone board. You need to set the board in the Arduino IDE to SparkFun Apollo3 \ SparkFun RedBoard Artemis ATP. And you will need to copy and paste the functions which enable the IMU power, enable the SD card power etc. from the OpenLog Artemis firmware. But, yes, it can be done.

There are some examples here to help:

Hey Paul, thank you for your answer!

On a different topic might fit a different post, Do you think the data speed is fast enough to send pulses of 100 microsecond on/off?

Much appreciation, Nitzan
