MyoWare 2.0 LED Shield

The MyoWare® 2.0 LED Shield is an amazing tool. It shows the strength of a target muscle's signal using a blue 10 - segment bar graph. The more the muscle activates, the higher the board LEDs light up! It powers the MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor with a built - in 40mAh single - cell lithium polymer (LiPo) battery. You can easily stack it on the sensor via snap connectors and turn the switch on. Recharge the battery through the USB Type C connector at a 40mA charge rate. The board has status LEDs for charging and power. Using battery power gives a cleaner signal and avoids dangerous current paths. Use it to track muscle effort during workouts, as a teaching aid, or add a cool myoelectric touch to your Halloween costume. Note: Due to the installed battery, this item may take longer to process and doesn't qualify for same - day shipping. Batteries can't be shipped via Ground or Economy to Alaska or Hawaii. MyoWare and the LED Shield aren't for diagnosing or treating diseases. The MyoWare® 2.0 ecosystem features easy - to - interface shields with the low - cost, Arduino - compatible MyoWare® 2.0 Muscle Sensor. The innovative connector system allows for simple assembly. A portion of sales goes to Advancer Technologies for product support and development. Product features include 5V input via USB Type C, 3.7V nominal output, a power switch, a built - in LiPo battery, an MCP73831 charge IC, a specific form factor, multiple LEDs, and defined board dimensions. There are also various documents available for reference.

Using the MyoWare 2.0 LED Shield is easy. First, stack the shield on top of the MyoWare 2.0 Muscle Sensor using the snap connectors on the board. Then, flip the power switch to the ON position to provide power to the sensor. The blue 10 - segment bar graph will start showing the magnitude of the muscle's signal. When you want to recharge the built - in 40mAh LiPo battery, connect the shield to a power source via the USB Type C connector. It will charge at a rate of 40mA. Keep an eye on the status LEDs to know the charging and power status. For workouts, attach the sensor to the relevant muscle and watch the LEDs to gauge how hard you're working the muscle. As a teaching tool, it can clearly demonstrate muscle signals. When using it for a Halloween costume, just add it for a unique myoelectric effect. Note that because of the battery, this item may take longer to process and can't be shipped to Alaska or Hawaii via certain methods. Also, this product isn't for medical diagnosis or treatment. To maintain the shield, keep it in a dry place and avoid physical damage. Don't overcharge the battery. If you have any issues, refer to the provided documents like the hookup guide and quickstart guide.
