Expanding its low-cost microcontroller (MCU) development ecosystem with sensor fusion technology, Texas Instruments announced the Sensor Hub BoosterPack for the Tiva C Series TM4C123G LaunchPad.
This new plug-in daughter card allows ARM Cortex-M4 MCU developers to create products with up to seven types of motion and environmental sensing capabilities. Together with the accompanying TivaWare software, it enables measurement of pressure, humidity, ambient and infrared (IR) light along with temperature and motion (including acceleration, orientation and compass).
Developers can use the board to create many sensor fusion applications, including global positioning system (GPS) tracking, home and building automation, portable consumer electronics, games and many more applications.
The BoosterPack can leverage the advanced processing, floating-point and communication capabilities of TI’s Tiva C Series TM4C123GH6 ARM Cortex-M4 MCU for enhanced sensor accuracy. TivaWare software, provided with the kit, includes an easy-to-use Sensor Driver Library, providing developers with a sensor fusion API and several example applications that demonstrate how each of the sensors operate individually or in collaboration.
