Question

Is it possible to use Sensortile.box Pro with Pi Pico W?

Would it be possible to connect and send sensor data to a Pi Pico W from the STEVAL-MKBOXPRO? I’m looking for a way to connect them together via Bluetooth but a wired connection would be alright too. I have connected a Pico to the sensortile box via Bluetooth already but I do not know how I can gather sensor data from this. 

Also is there any official or unofficial documentation on any similar endeavors? I’ve found this link which seems promising but the implementation is not very detailed https://community.st.com/t5/mems-and-sensors/how-to-create-a-custom-gaming-controller-using-sensortile-box/ta-p/597296

    Yes - the whole point of standards like BLE is that they are independent of the underlying hardware.

    What you'd need is documentation of the BLE Services, Characteristics, etc that the Sensortile.box uses ...

    Hi @spi1 ,

    You can connect the sensortile via USB to a pc if in the flow as output you choose "USB stream", the pc will install a virtual com to communicate with the board.
    Via bluetooth is used the BlueSDK platform, I recommend seeing the documentation from this page
