The FP-SNS-FLIGHT1 is an STM32Cube function pack which lets you connect your IoT node to a smartphone via BLE and use a suitable Android or iOS like the ST BLE Sensor app to view real-time time-of-flight sensors data. This package, together with the suggested combination of STM32 and ST devices can be used to develop specific wearable applications, or smart things applications in general.
The software runs on the STM32 microcontroller and includes all the necessary drivers to recognize the devices on the STM32 Nucleo development board and expansion boards.
The expansion is built on STM32Cube software technology to ease portability across different STM32 microcontrollers.
