PicoQuake is a MEMS accelerometer vibration sensor designed to profile a wide range of vibrations. It can capture everything from very low-frequency movements (tall buildings, bridges), to high-frequency vibrations in the kilohertz range (motors, industrial machinery).
Key features:
Wide frequency range: Suitable for both low and high-frequency vibration monitoring.
Accessible: A cost-effective alternative to traditional industrial vibration sensors, which often require proprietary hardware and software.
Standalone device: Connects directly to your computer (Linux, Mac, Windows) via USB.
Open-source integration: Interfaced through an open-source Python driver, providing a command line interface (CLI) and an API for easy integration and customization.
