BOOSTXL-SENSORS Sensors BoosterPack Plug-in Module
With both the OPT3001 tile on and the Light Sensing toggle box checked, the image darkens, whether or
not gesture recognition is enabled (see
).
Figure 17. Light Sensing in the Gesture Recognition Window
Board movement data is updated whenever the BMI160 is sampled; that is, it follows the same frequency
as the BMI160 drop-down selection box. If motion detection is not enabled, no related calculations are
done on the microcontroller and hence no update occurs.
Similarly, light sensing data is updated whenever the OPT3001 is sampled.

BOOSTXL-SENSORS_TI-RTOS_SensorGUI_MSP432P401R
This section describes the functionality structure of the BOOSTXL-
SENSORS_TI_RTOS_SensorGUI_MSP432P401R demo that is included in the
download, or more easily accessible through the SimpleLink MSP432 SDK (see
).
This example requires TI-RTOS MSP43x version 2_16_01_14 to be installed in CCS.
More information on the use of TI-RTOS can be found within the TI-RTOS User's Guide.
