Detailed MPU6050 Tutorial

Learn how an MPU measures orientation. Hide Jeff Rowberg's complex library behind a simple and easy to use interface. Fix Jeff's flawed conversion from quaternion to yaw pitch and roll. Learn how to save calibration results to EEPROM so that you don't have to calibrate every time you power on. Overhaul the current animation process. 🚃 Related tutorials 🚃: -------------------------------------- Full C++ series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsY_sXCKYCS-7FA-ACsxHXUxRMZDso9EL Visual Studio code for Arduino: https://youtu.be/xL-sA76r2Fw Dependency Injection: https://youtu.be/BERPCuHJPUg Header files: https://youtu.be/SeS79yLdX28 Class constructors: https://youtu.be/SuXip8NPE5Q 🚅 Chapters 🚅: -------------------------- 00:00 Overview 00:25 Measuring yaw pitch and roll 01:23 Equivalence principle 02:28 Orientation from gravity 03:57 Orientation from angular acceleration 05:17 Sensor fusion 06:40 Getting an MPU-6050 that actually works 08:49 Wiring diagram 09:37 Loose connections 10:50 Arduino Library 12:12 Dependency Injection 13:45 Visual Studio 15:10 Hiding library behind simple interface 25:27 From quaternion to yaw, pitch, roll 32:01 Calibration 33:44 EEPROM 39:52 How to call our MPU interface 43:11 Reset calibration demo 44:09 Calibration demo 44:53 Animation 45:18 Processing.exe, Toxiclibs 45:40 VPython 49:56 Sending data to python over serial 50:49 Rodrigues' rotation formula 52:24 Test procedure 54:25 Checking for gimbal locks
