Introduction

Helper library for the Hillcrest Laboratories BNO08x IMUs

Dependencies

This driver depends on:

• Adafruit CircuitPython
• Bus Device

Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem. This is easily achieved by downloading the Adafruit library and driver bundle.

Installing from PyPI

On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI. To install for current user:

pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-bno08x

To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):

sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-bno08x

To install in a virtual environment in your current project:

mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .env
source .env/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-bno08x

Usage Example

import board
import busio
import adafruit_bno08x

i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA)
bno = adafruit_bno08x.BNO08X(i2c)

while True:
    quat = bno.rotation_vector
    print("Rotation Vector Quaternion:")
    print("I: %0.3f J: %0.3f K: %0.3f Accuracy: %0.3f"%(quat.i, quat.j, quat.k, quat.accuracy))
