MetaBase

Quickly and easily log/stream sensor data from MbientLab's sensor boards

Features & Capabilities

MetaBase is a powerful Chrome extension designed to streamline the collection of sensor data from MbientLab's MetaWear boards. It allows users to configure their MetaWear devices to log data from various on-board sensors and retrieve the data later or stream it live directly to their Android devices.

Data captured can easily be uploaded to popular file management services like Google Drive and Dropbox, emailed directly to the user, or synchronized with MbientLab's MetaCloud service for seamless cloud storage and access. Compatible with Android 5.0 and above, MetaBase requires a Bluetooth Low Energy compliant device for operation. The extension ensures efficient sensor data handling for developers, researchers, and hobbyists working with wearable sensor technology.
