Description of MyoWare Power Shield:

MyoWare Power Shield is designed to use two standard CR2032 coin cell batteries to power the MyoWare muscle sensor. These will be connected in parallel for extended capacity at a nominal 3.0V.

Connecting the MyoWare muscle sensor to battery power allows for a cleaner signal while eliminating the possibility of creating a dangerous current path to the mains.

One thing to note is that due to the size of the batteries, you cannot run the remote cable header on the MyoWare Muscle Sensor. If you need to access these connections, this Power Shield will need to be stacked on top of the boards that need access.

The MyoWare muscle sensor, to which this shield attaches, is an all-in-one Arduino-powered electromyography (EMG) sensor from Advancer Technologies. The MyoWare board acts by measuring the filtered and rectified electrical activity of a muscle; outputting 0-Vs Volts depending on the amount of activity in the selected muscle, where Vs stands for the voltage of the power source.

Note: The MyoWare Power Shield and MyoWare LED Shield provide power, but at slightly different voltages. Do not use both shields at the same time.

MyoWare LED Shield

This LED shield goes in set with the MyoWare Muscle Sensor. It is a 10-segment bar graph showing the reads from the sensor. Put the two together and you get a great system that allows you to measure and show your muscle activity. Pretty cool, huh? The shield comes equipped with a LiPo power source making it full autonomous.

Arduino Nano 33 Ble Sense rev2

On top of all the upgrades presented in Nano BLE (64 MHz clock, 1Mb flash memory, 256Kb SRAM) Nano BLE Sense Rev2 brings basic sensors to the table. It is truly impressive how Arduino team managed to fit those on such a small factor, nonetheless they did and did so for 5 basic modules.

In the package, you get 9 axis IMU, humidity and temperature sensor, barometric sensor, microphone and vision sensor (gesture, proximity, color and light intensity). Such a set together with TensorFlow compatibility enables basic machine learning functionalities straight after taking the board out of the box.
