We're closing this year with the new Xsens DOT release. Read all about new features in this blog.
Synchronization
The synchronization means enable all sensors to be synchronized to a common time base.
In this release we've improved synchronization and now it is not required for every measurement. Keep working with multiple sensors without starting additional synchronization processes.
We've added a synchronization status to help you understand if the sensor is synced or not
Additional sensor fusion profile
To enable even more application scenarios with Xsens DOT we've added a new sensor fusion filter profile
Two filter profiles are now available
| Filter profile |
Description |
| General |
Default filter profile for general human motions |
| Dynamic |
For fast and jerky human motions like sprinting |
The Filter Profile that is best suited for a specific application should be selected before measurement
Magnetic field mapper
To enable even more application scenarios with Xsens DOT we've added a new sensor fusion filter profile
Adjustable output rate
Real-time streaming mode
1Hz, 4Hz, 10Hz, 12Hz, 15Hz, 20Hz, 30Hz and 60Hz
Less data packet loss with lower rates
Recording mode
1Hz, 4Hz, 10Hz, 12Hz, 15Hz, 20Hz, 30Hz, 60Hz and 120Hz
Extended recording time with lower rates
More accurate motion data with 120Hz rate in dynamic applications
Magnetic field mapper
Gives you better product experience with the magnetic field mapping
What’s new
Allow user to do MFM with 5 sensors at the same time
One click to start the MFM process and begin to the rotation, no more operations
üClear indication of the rotation progress
üClear indication of MFM status
Button callback
New feature! Extends development options with Xsens DOT sensor button callback to let your app users control their session without mobile
Give out a BLE notification alone with sensor timestamp (ms) if a single click (10~800ms) of the power button is detected
Refer to “Button callback” section in SDK programming guide and BLE services specifications
Firmware update notification in SDK
New feature! Enables notifications for a new firmware available in applications developed with SDK
An interface in SDK to send out a notification if a new firmware is available
Applications developed with SDK can have an immediate notification for a new firmware
Refer to “Firmware update notification” section in SDK programming guide
RSSI in SDK and Xsens DOT App
New feature! Enables Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) to let you know how good your mobile device can receive signals from DOT sensors
New functions in SDK to read the RSSI values during scanning and connection
