Detect motion using rfetick's MPU6050 Library

Projects General Guidance
1

This is the only library I found that give pitch and roll angles.
I want to create a function that detect motion, behaving just as the "Detect motion" function in Adafruit's lib for MPU6050.
How could I do this?

2

Why not use Adafruit' "detect motion" function?

3

I new to Arduino programming, but can I use two libraries for the same IC? will be there any conflict?

Yes, you can expect conflicts if two libraries attempt access the same module.

Take a look at the "detect motion" code, perhaps you can just include that code, or at least the method, into your own program.

Ok, I will try to modify the Adafruit's lib, thank you.

If anyone passes through, this will be helpful:

void MPU6050::MotionDetectionEnable() {
  //writeData(0x37, 0x20);
  byte regdata = readData(0x1C);
  writeData(0x1C, 0x01 || regdata);
  writeData(0x1F, 5);
  writeData(0x20, 40);
  writeData(0x69, 0x15);
  writeData(0x38, 0x40);
}

bool MPU6050::MotionDetectionFlag() {
  byte flag = readData(0x61);
  flag = flag >> 1;
  if (flag > 0)
    return true;
  else
    return false;
}
