IMU Sensor Options

Hi there,

My company is working on a stealth product which requires a compass and motion detection functionality all in one chip. We are looking into using Bosch's line of accelerometers/ IMUs to complete this task. Can anyone let me know what you would suggest for use with this application? In addition, we would like features such tap detection embedded into the device. Step detection would also be nice. Our biggest concerns are accuracy and low-power. \

I am currently looking at the following parts:

- BMX055

- BNO055

- BNO080

Which is the best part for my application and what are the differences between all 3 parts? Thanks!
