BHI360 Programmable Sensor System
Bosch Sensortec's BHI360 is simple to integrate thanks to its small size and ready-to-use algorithms
Bosch Sensortec's BHI360 is a highly integrated, ultra-low-power customizable smart sensor system consisting of a best-in-class six-axis IMU, a programmable 32-bit microcontroller (Fuser2 Core), and a second ultra-low-power MCU with a powerful software framework containing pre-installed sensor fusion and other sensor data processing software within a 2.5 mm x 3 mm LGA package. It is also Pin2pin backward compatible with Bosch Sensortec IMUs.
The Fuser2 core in the BHI360 is intended to be used as a co-processor, offloading the main CPU from sensor data processing tasks like sensor fusion, position tracking, activity, and gesture detection with high-precision low-latency while significantly reducing the overall system power consumption.
The Bosch Sensortec BHI 360 shuttle board 3.0 is a PCB with the smart sensor BHI360 mounted on it. In combination with Bosch Sensortec's application board 3.0, this shuttle board can be used to evaluate various functionalities provided on the BHI 360. The shuttle board allows easy access to the sensor pins via a simple socket.
