Hello Everyone!!
I have been trying to find out a 9DOF IMU to interface with the Pyboard(V1.1) that I have been playing around and planning to give a try on BMI160 IMU from Bosch. Has anyone given a try so far with this or any kind of 9DOF IMUs?
I am planning to use this library https://github.com/micropython-IMU/micropython-fusion by Peterhinch.
Thanks in advance!!

I used the 9DOF sensor on the SenseHat and managed to use it together with peters fusion library that you have linked.

Thank you so much for getting back so quick!!
That was pretty interesting .
I have been looking to use the IMU part alone. I may even use the env sensor later.
Would you be able to suggest on any break-out boards to start off with ??

Do you mean with the bosch sensor? No I cant give recommendations there.
The SenseHat though is great value for getting things to work quickly. It may be a bit big though.
I‘m not sure if the lsm9ds1 sensor from ST on the SenseHat is a bit outdated now since the board has been around for some time. You might check ST website for some eval kits on follow up models.
A breakout board for the ST sensor is still available https://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/pr ... 159v1.html
for around 15$

I mainly use the very popular MPU9250, it has both become very cheap and a recognized as 1 of the best performing IMUs

Thanks OutoftheBOTS_ for the suggestion!!
Will take a look and get back

Hi. I am actually working with a couple of BMI160. At this moment, I am just understand the raw acceleration values, rest to code the calibration.
This is the first time I learn how work a IC from zero and I am served with this complexity.
Who write own BMI160 library? Thanks.
