Sensors

The mobile edition has the next sensors:

Bosch BMG160 [1]

Main Features

  • Gyroscope - Measures the rate of rotation in space (roll, pitch, yaw)

Applications

  • Gaming
  • Navigation systems
  • Motion and activity measurement
  • Optical image stabilization

Bosch BMC150 [2]

Main Features

  • eCompass - Combines accelerometer and magnetometer
  • Accelerometer - Detects linear motion and gravitational forces
  • Magnetometer - Measures the terrestrial earth's magnetic fields

Applications

  • Augmented reality applications and location based services
  • Indoor and outdoor navigation, e.g. map rotation or step counting (pedometry)
  • Motion tracking
  • Gesture recognition e.g. tap and double tap sensing, Display profile switching
  • Gaming
  • Air mouse applications, pointing device

Bosch BME280[3]

Main Features

  • Relative Humidity - Measures relative humidity with a fast response time
  • Pressure - Measures barometric pressure and altitude
  • Temperature - Measures ambient temperature

Applications

  • Context awareness, e.g. skin detection, room change detection
  • Fitness monitoring / well-being
  • Warning regarding dryness or high temperatures
  • Measurement of volume and air flow
  • Home automation control
  • Control heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC)
  • Internet of things
  • GPS enhancement (e.g. time-to-first-fix improvement, dead reckoning, slope detection)
  • Indoor navigation (change of floor detection, elevator detection)
  • Outdoor navigation, leisure and sports applications
  • Weather forecast
  • Vertical velocity indication (rise/sink speed)
