Acceleration sensor BMA550
Acceleration-based body sound sensor
The BMA550 sensor for hearables makes a big wave against unwanted sound waves. The innovative accelerometer works as body sound sensor for sensing bone conducted voice. Smart “voice enhancement” filters out distracting noises during phone calls and amplifies your own voice. This means that the person you are talking to can always understand you, even in noisy atmospheres. The BMA features 5-7x lower noise than standard accelerometers, low power consumption and high data rate up to 48 kHz for low latency.
Easy-to-integrate due to small size
Enhanced speech processing
Continuously usable due to always-on low-power speech processing
