1. A method of processing sensor data, the method comprising:
- obtaining, using a first sensing element of a first digital sensor, first sensor data;
obtaining, using a second sensing element, second sensor data;
obtaining, by the first digital sensor via a digital bus, received sensor data corresponding to the second sensor data;
processing, by a controller of the first digital sensor, the first sensor data and the received sensor data to generate processed data; and
providing the processed data, via the digital bus, to a host computer.

Abstract
A sensor system and method includes first and second sensing elements, digital sensors, a host computer and a digital bus. The first sensing element is configured to collect first sensor data and the second sensing element is configured to collect second sensor data. The digital sensor includes a controller that is configured to receive the first and second sensor data and process the first sensor data together with the second sensor data to generate processed data. The host computer is configured to receive the processed data from the digital sensor over the digital bus.
