Bosch Sensortec’s BHI260AB ultra-low-power high-performance smart sensor hub with integrated accelerometer and gyroscope Bosch Sensortec’s BHI260AB is a family of ultra-low-power smart hubs consisting of Bosch Sensortech’s programmable 32-bit microcontroller (Fuser2), a state-of-the-art 6-axis IMU, and a powerful software framework containing pre-installed sensor fusion and other sensor processing software within a small 44-pad LGA package. …
Reaction wheels are useful things, typically used by satellites to keep themselves oriented the right way up in space. Turning the reaction wheel creates an equal and opposite torque in the spacecraft, allowing it to point and rotate itself accurately. The same technique also works here on Earth, and [Brick Experiment Channel] decided to build one …
Murata has introduced the SCC300 series components that combine high-performance angular rate and accelerometer sensor components. The SCC300 is the 3rd generation of MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) 4DoF (four-degrees-of-freedom) and 5DoF (five-degrees-of-freedom) inertial sensors that realize high-performance for safety-critical automotive applications. The new device consists of versions of an X-axis, Z-axis, and XZ-axis angular rate sensor and a 3-axis accelerometer sensor. …
A team of researchers at the ‘Georgia Institute of Technology’ has come up with a non-invasive sensor-in-a-chip that records details of the heartbeat, respiration rates, and lung sounds. It even tracks the wearer’s physical activities, such as walking. The signals are recorded in sync, potentially giving healthcare workers a detailed overview of a patient’s heart and lungs. …

This sketch demonstrates an example of accelerometer data processing using a classification tree. The classifier code was generated using the Python script classifier_gen.py using recorded and labeled training data. The underlying classification tree was automatically generated using the Python scikit-learn library. The purpose of the classifier is to categorize a multi-dimensional data point into an integer representing membership within …
The widespread of low cost embedded electronics makes it easier to implement the smart devices that can understand either the environment or the user behaviors [3]. The main object of this project is to design and implement home use portable smart electronics, including the portable monitoring device for home and office security and the portable …

Introduction Short description of what was done for the project. The work team has done for the sand flow system is to simulate the motion of sand to realize the sand matrix game on PiTFT screen. The piTFT screen is hand held by users so that users are able to control the flowing direction of …
Overview This tutorial involves wiring the H3LIS331DL accelerometer to the Raspberry Pi 0, as well as implementing the code in python that executes the readings. This specific accelerometer is 3-axis, meaning it records data in the x, y, and z-planes, and can take readings up to +-400g’s. Once the sensor is wired to the pi, …
A YouTuber modded a recent iteration of the classic Bop It! toy into a fully functional controller and successfully played Minecraft with it. The legendary creative sandbox game Minecraft was entirely based on the concept of creative freedom, but one particularly techno-savvy player has taken it to a new extreme by modifying a Bop It toy into a …
