Stellaris LaunchPad IMU.


Recommended Posts

Some really useful stuff. I started playing around with the same (or very similar) IMU but didn't get as far before getting sidetracked on other stuff. When I get back to it I'll definitely take a look at your code as a starting point. Unless I decide that the STM32F3 discovery kit (with onboard IMU components and ridiculously low price) is a better fit.

This is a project for me to learn programming on the Stellaris,  with tons of materials, support from TI, this and other forums, I managed to get a working port going for this project.   I ported pa

It works!    time to study!!!  

First test.. at 5:52am.. got get some Zzzz.. Church and lessons to cover till 3pm.. arghh!

Well, don't be surprised when you'll find out that the ACC on the STM32F3 kit isn't the best one out there in the market. 

 

You should have a look at 'baseflight' when you want to stay with the STM part.

I tot of STMF32F3, similar setup as the PX4, maybe easier to port..

 

@Fred, if you have time to look at the code, I am getting running error on the Roll axis, and after fixing the update rate to 100Hz. I am getting some scaling error.

I will look at it again this week end.

the code is for UART1. not updated to use the UI.

 

Please update us with you mocap experiment, thanks.

 

just cloned the repository, thank you.

 

I'm waiting for the sensor modules, when they will arrive I will try your code and start the developement

Is it stable before the Euler conversion?

Finally my GY-80 boards are arrived from china  :) , I'm still waiting for bluetooth modules but now I can start working.

 

I will try them with your code to test if they are working or faulty, then I will start to study your code and then modify it or write my own one.

 

I've downloaded last version from your repository (r11) and successfully imported the project into CCS.

How can I test if my setup is working after compiling the code? Have I to set something into project options?

 

 

These are the connections from Stellaris board to GY-80 board:

 

Stellaris VBUS -> GY-80 VCC_IN

Stellaris GND -> GY-80 GND

Stellaris PA6 -> GY-80 SCL

Stellaris PA7 -> GY-80 SDA
