FP-SNS-MOTENVWB1
Software Overview
8
Software Description
•The FP-SNS-MOTENVWB1 function pack for STM32Cube lets you connect your IoT node to a
smartphone via Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and use a suitable Android or iOS application such
as the STBLESensor app to view real-time motion, environmental (temperature, relative
humidity) and time-of-flight sensor data.
•The package also enables advanced functionality such as sensor data fusion, accelerometer-
based real-time activity recognition, carry position, gesture recognition, pedometer, motion
Intensity, compass and objects distance.
•Together with the suggested combination of STM32WB and ST devices, it can be used to
develop specific wearable and environmental applications, or smart things applications in
general.
•The software runs on the STM32WB microcontroller and includes all the necessary drivers to
recognize the devices on the STM32WB55 Nucleo development board (P-NUCLEO-WB55), X-
NUCLEO-IKS01A3 and X-NUCLEO-53L3A2 (optional) expansion boards.
Key features
•Complete firmware to develop an IoT node with BLE connectivity, environmental, motion and
time-of-flight sensors
•Middleware libraries for sensor data fusion, accelerometer-based real-time activity recognition,
carry position, gesture recognition, motion intensity recognition and pedometer.
•Compatible with ST BLE Sensor application for Android/iOS, to perform sensor data reading,
motion algorithm features and firmware update (FOTA)
•Example implementation available for the X-NUCLEO-IKS01A3 and X-NUCLEO-53L3A2
(optional) connected to a P-NUCLEO-WB55.Nucleo
•Easy portability across different MCU families, thanks to STM32Cube
