1.1 Board overview
[1.1] BlueBox overview including axes alignment for SMB365 acceleration sensor
The Bosch Sensortec BlueBox Demo-Board in combination with its SensorDesktop software
was built for the simultaneous demonstration of the general functionality of the digital
accelerometer sensor SMB365 and the digital pressure sensor SMD500. This includes the
possibility of demonstrating output signal behaviors of each sensor as graphical functions,
interrupt features different power modes, threshold and hysteresis limits, different acceleration
or pressure ranges, the self test function, as well as a user defined direct data export. All either
wire bound via USB or wireless via Bluetooth. Note that the Bosch BlueBox Demo-Board should
not be considered as an evaluation tool. For specific product evaluation refer to the
corresponding BOSCH Evaluation Kits.
After a simple installation of the SensorDesktop software and the connection of the demo board
to a free USB port acceleration specific signals corresponding e.g. to tilt, movement, free-fall,
vibration, shock as well as pressure specific signals corresponding e.g. to height, atmospheric
