Mouser Electronics is now stocking Bosch 's BHI260AP self-learning AI smart sensor . The BHI260AP is the world's first self-learning AI sensor for wearable and hearable devices, integrating a six-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU), a 32-bit user-programmable microcontroller, and software functions into a system-in-package (SiP) solution.

The Bosch BHI260AP self-learning AI smart sensor provides embedded edge artificial intelligence using self-learning AI software, including fitness tracking, navigation (pedestrian positioning), machine learning analysis, and relative and absolute direction estimation. The sensor integrated on the BHI260AP is a six-degree-of-freedom (6DoF) IMU that contains a 16-bit three-axis accelerometer and a 16-bit three-axis gyroscope. The host interface can be configured as SPI or I²C, with a total of two master interfaces (one optional SPI/I²C and one I²C), and up to 12 GPIOs.

BHI260AP's unique self-learning and personalization features allow users to easily train the device with customized fitness activities. The sensor includes over 15 pre-learned fitness activities, so no training is required before use. In addition to its native activities, the device provides learning, personalization, automatic tracking and enhanced user experience capabilities. Users can enhance or add new fitness activities without modifying the software and without the original data set. Since the AI ​​runs on the sensor itself, there is no need to connect to the cloud or a smartphone. This innovative edge AI capability helps reduce latency, dramatically reduce power consumption, and protect end-user privacy.

The Bosch BHI260AP self-learning AI smart sensor is an all-in-one solution for always-on sensor applications, ideal for wrist-worn devices, ear-worn devices, smartphones, AR/VR headsets, and controller devices. For easy evaluation and development, Mouser also offers the BHI260AP Shuttle Board 3.0, which is now available for order.
