    BHI160B Activity Recognition

    BHI160B Activity Recognition

    Hi,
    We are currently almost in the production phase and have some problems concerning the BHI160B in combination with nRF52832 (running zephyr).

    Our application has two main states. During the normal state we are using the activity recognition only for detecting the activity of the user. Our product is worn on the wrist and we've noticed that the activity recognition is not really accurate, most of the time it is not even recognized when a user is in a vehicle. Is there a way to improve these results? Implementation:

    result |= bhy_enable_virtual_sensor(VS_TYPE_ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION, VS_WAKEUP, 1, 0, VS_FLUSH_NONE, 0, 0);

    result |= bhy_install_sensor_callback(VS_TYPE_ACTIVITY_RECOGNITION, VS_WAKEUP, sensors_callback_activity_recognition);

    In the second state we only use the pick-up and significant motion to detect if the device is picked up and worn again. All other sensors of the BHI160B are disabled and uninstalled in this state. However the current consumption is still really high ~500uA. After disabling the gesture recognition, current consumption is only ~40uA, see attachments. 460uA seems to be a lot when only using the gesture recognition, is there a way to improve this?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Sir:

        It is only the opening offical version and only for phone version, not the latest version and wearable version.

        So recommend you to contact the local FAE of BST or the distributor to update your FW.
