How do I get data from MPU6050?
There are two ways to extract useful data from the MPU6050. One way is to read the raw sensor data values, as we did during calibration process, and use that data to compute the new orientation. The second method is to pull the data out of the MPU’s onboard Digital Motion Processor (DMP).
What is MPU6050?
MPU6050 is a Micro Electro-mechanical system (MEMS), it consists of three-axis accelerometer and three-axis gyroscope. It helps us to measure velocity, orientation, acceleration, displacement and other motion like features.
What is ADXL345?
The ADXL345 is a small, thin, ultralow power, 3-axis accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to ±16 g. It measures the static acceleration of gravity in tilt-sensing appli- cations, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion or shock.
How good is MPU6050?
5.0 out of 5 stars Works well w/ Arduino.

How do I use ADXL345?
Below we have included all the steps that you will need to follow to connect the ADXL345 accelerometer to an Arduino Uno.
- Wire the GND pin of the ADXl345 to the GND Pin on the Arduino.
- Wire the VCC pin of the ADXL345 to the 3v3 Pin on the Arduino.
- Wire the SCL pin of the ADXL345 to the SCL Pin on the Arduino.
What does g mean in accelerometer?
g is also used as a unit for acceleration, relative to standard gravity (1g = 9.80665m/s2). Other units include Gal (CGS) used to measure seismic acceleration. This is defined as 1/100 of the SI system (1 Gal=0.01m/s2). Accelerometer sensors are generally classified as low-g and high-g types as shown below.
What is g range in accelerometer?
Accelerometer Specifications It is the frequency range where the output of the accelerometer is within a specified deviation, typically +/- 5%. g 1g is the acceleration due to the earth’s gravity which is 32.2 ft/sec2, 386 in/sec2 or 9.8 m/sec2.
What is the adxl345?
The ADXL345 is a small, thin, ultralow power, 3-axis accelerometer with high resolution (13-bit) measurement at up to ±16 g. Digital output data is formatted as 16-bit twos complement and is acces- sible through either a SPI (3- or 4-wire) or I 2C digital interface.
How do I connect the adxl345 accelerometer to the breakout?
accelerometer = adafruit_adxl34x.ADXL343(i2c) If you’re using the ADXL345, run the following to initialise the I2C connection with the breakout: accelerometer = adafruit_adxl34x.ADXL345(i2c)
How to wake up adxl345 to save power?
For small to medium angles, the values called “Angle” are closer to reality, at large angles the pitch/roll method is better. To save power, you can send the ADXL345 to sleep. The function to do this (and to wake it up) is: Sleep is interrupted by short waking phases. That cannot be stopped. But you can set the wake-up frequency to 1, 2, 4 or 8 Hz.
Can the adxl345 breakout share the I2C bus with other devices?
Be sure to solder all pins to assure good electrical contact. I2C Wiring: The ADXL345 Breakout has an I2C address of 0x53. It can share the I2C bus with other I2C devices as long as each device has a unique address.
