The MPU-9250 is an impressive IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor: For 5 bucks you get 9 axes : A three axes accelerometer, a three axes gyro and a three axis magnetometer (compass). • But dealing with the sensor is anything but easy! It just gives you raw values, you need to do a lot to get a stable angle calculation. • And the only Node-RED node existing is not working anymore on newer node.js versions! • Thus, I decided to start my last winter project for 2020/21: We will go step by step into the integration of the MPU-9250 in Node-RED: • we will use a special note to be able to use Python in Node-RED • we will read out registers, create objects in Python and hand them back to Node-RED • we will combine high and low bytes to words • we will calibrate the accelerometer sensor, using the 15 bit offset registers • we will perform some trigonometry to calculate the rotation angle • we will create a dashboard in Node-RED to get our readings and results • This is part 1: • We will learn about the accelerometer works and we will use Python in Node-RED to read out the data for X,Y and Z. • Recommended links: • • Understanding Sensor Fusion and Track... ||| great explanation from Mathworks about IMU.
