Sensing solutions for gaming applications & toys

Bosch Sensortec´s triaxial BMA400 is the first real ultra-low power acceleration sensor. Accordingly, the BMA400 is especially suited for wearable devices, which need a long-lasting battery lifetime. Further, it is the ideal solution for smart home applications e.g. smart indoor climate systems and smart home security systems. By distinguishing between critical situations and false signals, the new acceleration sensor avoids false alarms.

The low-power, low-noise BMM150 is a 3-axis digital geomagnetic sensor that perfectly matches the requirements of compass applications. By means of sensor data fusion software tailored to the hardware, the BMM150 provides absolute spatial orientation and motion vectors with high accuracy and dynamics. The BMM150 is also especially suited for supporting drones in accurate heading. The BMM150 can be used together with an inertial measurement unit consisting of a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyroscope such as Bosch Sensortec’s BMI055.

The BMI323 is a general purpose, low-power Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) that combines precise acceleration and angular rate (gyroscopic) measurement with intelligent on-chip motion-triggered interrupt features. BMI323 targets fast and accurate inertial sensing in all applications. It is an easy-to-use IMU with an integrated feature set.

The ultra-low power BMI270 is an IMU optimized for wearables providing precise acceleration, angular rate measurement and intelligent on-chip motion-triggered interrupt features. The 6-axis sensor combines a 16-bit tri-axial gyroscope and a 16-bit tri-axial accelerometer featuring Bosch’s automotive-proven gyroscope technology. BMI270 includes several functionalities such as an integrated plug-and-play step counter/detector for wrist-worn devices. Moreover, the IMU is suitable for hearables, smart clothes, smart shoes, smart glasses and ankle bands.

The BMP390 is a very small, low-power and low-noise 24-bit absolute barometric pressure sensor. The digital, high-performance sensor is ideally suited for a wide range of altitude tracking applications. This new BMP390 pressure sensor offers outstanding design flexibility, providing a single package solution that customers can easily integrate into a multitude of existing and upcoming devices such as smartphones, GPS modules, wearables, hearables and drones.

BMP384 has a gel-filled cavity that allows higher robustness against water, liquids and other chemicals if the applicable integration concept is used. The BMP384 is perfectly suitable for applications of water-level and clog detection. It is compatible for use with other Bosch Sensortec sensors, including the BMI088 for better performance, robustness and stability. The BMP384 with its small footprint offers outstanding design flexibility, providing a single package solution that is easy to integrate into other existing and upcoming devices for smart home, industrial products and wearables.

The BME688 is the first gas sensor with Artificial Intelligence (AI) and integrated high-linearity and high-accuracy pressure, humidity and temperature sensors. It is housed in a robust yet compact 3.0 x 3.0 x 0.9 mm³ package and especially developed for mobile & connected applications where size and low power consumption are critical requirements. The gas sensor can detect Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) and other gases such as carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the part per billion (ppb) range.

The BME280 is a humidity sensor especially developed for mobile applications and wearables where size and low power consumption are key design parameters. The unit combines high linearity and high accuracy sensors and is perfectly feasible for low current consumption, long-term stability and high EMC robustness. The humidity sensor offers an extremely fast response time and therefore supports performance requirements for emerging applications such as context awareness, and high accuracy over a wide temperature range.
