BMP5 Sensor API

Sensor overview

The BMP580/BMP581/BMP585 is an absolute barometric pressure sensor. Its small dimensions, its low power consumption and the highend performance allow the implementation in a wide range of applications.

Target Application

  • Enhancement of GPS navigation (e.g. dead-reckoning, slope detection)
  • Indoor navigation (floor detection, elevator detection)
  • Outdoor navigation
  • Sports applications like calorie counting, fitness activity identification
  • Emergency caller location
  • Weather forecast
  • Vertical velocity indication (e.g. rise/sink speed)
  • Altitude control of drones and flying toys

Feature

  • Pressure data
  • Temperature data
