BNO055 IMU driver (with sensor fusion)

Post by pythoncoder » Tue May 14, 2019 9:48 am

The Bosch BNO055 chip performs sensor fusion in hardware making it a uniquely powerful inertial measurement unit. This driver is derived from the Adafruit CircuitPython driver but is optimised to run under official MicroPython. It can produce Euler angles or quaternion data at a 100Hz update rate.

A minimal version of the driver is offered for platforms with minimal RAM such as ESP8266, where it consumes under 10KB.
