Rapid protoyping of sensor application algorithms with ST AlgoBuilder

Discover how the AlgoBuilder platform streamlines algorithm development for STM32 microcontroller and sensor applications.

During this one-hour webinar recording, we will introduce the ST AlgoBuilder, a graphical design interface for sensor-based algorithm development that leverages ST´s latest products and development platforms.

Algobuilder enables fast prototyping of applications for STM32 microcontrollers and sensors, including already-existing algorithms (i.e. sensor fusion or pedometer), user-defined data processing blocks, and additional functionalities.

The tool also eases the process of implementing proof-of-concept using a graphical interface, eliminating the need to write a single line of code. The platform reuses previously-defined blocks, combines multiple designs within a single project, and visualizes data through the Unicleo-GUI in real time using plot and display.

AlgoBuilder allows simple graphical design of algorithms (drag and drop, connect, set properties, build, upload), seamless C code generation from the graphical design, and simulation display through the Unicleo-GUI.

Agenda:

• Overview of ST's MEMS and Sensors product portfolio
• Available hardware development platforms
• Sensor-based expansion software package for STM32Cube
• A deep dive into the ST AlgoBuilder platform
• Application examples
• Take-aways
