Gyroscope

Language	English

Objective This tutorial will use the Microduino-10DOF module's gyroscope and accelerometer sensor to measure data, and then display the data in Processing. Equipment Microduino-Core Microduino-FT232R Microduino-10DOF Other equipment USB cable one Schematic Use the Microduino-10DOF module's gyroscope and accelerometer sensor directly. Program Refers to MPU6050Microduino processingGyro Debug Step 1：Set up hardware system, as follows: Step 2: Explain the code: This example needs two parts code, one is Processing and the other is Microduino. Microduino: //Get the gyroscope and accelerometer sensor's data and output to serial to dispaly. void loop() { accelgyro.getMotion6(&ax, &ay, &az, &gx, &gy, &gz); sprintf(str, "%d,%d,%d,%d,%d,%d,%d", ax, ay, az, gx, gy, gz); Serial.print(str); Serial.write(byte(10)); delay(20); } Processing: //Get the first serial port data. myPort = new Serial(this, Serial.list()[0], 9600); // first COM port //Display Microduino received data in screen. Function description： readSensors() //Read the sensor data normalize3DVec(float [] vector) //Process the 3d vector buildBoxShape() //Setup the shap of box drawCube() //Draw the box getInclination() //Get the angle Step 3: Compile the code and download it. Step 4: After running, rotate the Microduino module and observe Microduino's display. Result A box will be displayed in screen, it can simulate the Microduino's posture, as follows: Video
