Freescale MPL3115A2 : precise pressure and altitude detection demo [video]

GregC

Freescale's Xtrinsic MPL3115A2 pressure sensor shows altitude detection as Freescale employee George Guo walks down stairs and rides in an elevator.

  • Another neat device, but again the video lacks that engineering pizazz.

     

    I would have used the device on a balloon or vehicle ( R/C helicopter) to record the pressureand temperature over a flight path to show the altitude changes as you fly up and down as you video the vehicle against buildings to show the data collected along the flight path.

     

    You can then put up the charts showing the device capability and your results on the flight.  Put in some good action background music and you can keep someone interested while the watch.

     

    Engineers are great one on one, but you need a trained speaker when you want to sell new devices to potential customers.

     

    Just a thought.
