The BMX160 sensor is a high-precision, small-sized module that serves as a powerful tool in tracking and assessing spatial movements and orientations. Housing a 3-axis accelerometer, a 3-axis gyroscope, and a 3-axis magnetometer, it can comprehensively monitor motion along nine different planes or axes. This integration into a single package makes it a versatile choice for various applications such as wearables, gaming controls, navigation systems, and drone stabilization, where accurate motion tracking is pivotal.
Accelerometer: Measures changes in speed in different directions.
Gyroscope: Detects changes in orientation by measuring the rate of rotation.
Magnetometer: Senses the magnetic fields that surround it, assisting in determining direction.
