This might be super silly simple, but I just want to get the current angle out of the IMU.
I am using the basic example,
#include "MPU9250.h"
#include <Wire.h>
// an MPU9250 object with the MPU-9250 sensor on I2C bus 0 with address 0x68
MPU9250 IMU(Wire,0x68);
int status;
void setup() {
// serial to display data
Serial.begin(115200);
while(!Serial) {}
// start communication with IMU
status = IMU.begin();
if (status < 0) {
Serial.println("IMU initialization unsuccessful");
Serial.println("Check IMU wiring or try cycling power");
Serial.print("Status: ");
Serial.println(status);
while(1) {}
}
}
void loop() {
// read the sensor
IMU.readSensor();
// display the data
// Serial.print(IMU.getAccelX_mss(),6);
// Serial.print("\t");
// Serial.print(IMU.getAccelY_mss(),6);
// Serial.print("\t");
// Serial.print(IMU.getAccelZ_mss(),6);
// Serial.print("\t");
Serial.print(IMU.getGyroX_rads(),6);
Serial.print("\t");
Serial.print(IMU.getGyroY_rads(),6);
Serial.print("\t");
Serial.print(IMU.getGyroZ_rads(),6);
Serial.print("\t");
Serial.print(IMU.getMagX_uT(),6);
Serial.print("\t");
Serial.print(IMU.getMagY_uT(),6);
Serial.print("\t");
Serial.print(IMU.getMagZ_uT(),6);
Serial.print("\t");
Serial.println(IMU.getTemperature_C(),6);
delay(100);
}
I thought the getGyroX_rads() would get me the angle, but not. It gives me the rate of change.
As the IMU is static at 45 degrees inclination, this goes back to zero.
I thought that's what IMU.getAccelX_mss, is for, !?!?!
Anyways, this is so fancy, can I please just get the incline angle?
Thanks
