Rei Vilo 695 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 The new Sensors BoosterPack features two sets of sensors: weather and IMU. Weather Weather sensors include BME280 (humidity and pressure), OPT3001 (ambient light), TMP007 (ambient and contactless temperature). I've already ported the libraries for the weather sensors to Energia. IMU Fmilburn 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
energia 484 Posted August 22, 2016 Share Posted August 22, 2016 Thank for looking into this. I would love help out to enable these libraries in Energia. I am a bit tied up right now but should be able to help out in a couple days or so. Can you send me the library for the IMU that you have so far? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

newmislguy 0 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 I just recently got into a group that does a lot with launchpad's I'm currently trying to get that same booster pack to work for me. Did you ever get the 150 and 160 to work because I have so far found just what you have found and know much less in the way of C and C++ programming. If by any chance you have accomplished it if you could point me in the right direction that would be awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rei Vilo 695 Posted November 18, 2016 Author Share Posted November 18, 2016 The BMI160 (3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope) and BMM150 (3-axis magnetometer) from Bosch are still a mystery, sorry! I'd recommend to go for the Bosch BMO055 instead. This sensor includes its own MCU to calculate the Euler angles. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xeebot 5 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I apologize for re-opening a thread this old, but I'm looking for the library for the Sensors BoosterPack and don't see it available in energia. Does anyone have it and, if so, would you mind sharing? Got two of the Boosterpacks and a couple dozen launchpads and would like to get some use out of them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xeebot 5 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 In the mean time, I grabbed this Arduino library and imported it. If that will be good enough, please let me know. I'll keep hammering on it tomorrowhttps://github.com/finitespace/BME280/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rei Vilo 695 Posted February 2, 2019 Author Share Posted February 2, 2019 Have a look at SensorsWeather_Library Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rei Vilo 695 Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 I tried various times to adapt and develop a library for the BMI160 + BMM150 sensors on Energia, alas without succeeding. The example included in the SAIL SDK works fine, although it is pure C and aimed at Code Composer Studio. https://www.ti.com/tool/download/SIMPLELINK-SDK-SENSOR-ACTUATOR-PLUGIN The documentation provided by Bosch is very poor and marred with errors. Should you need a ready-to-use IMU, I strongly recommend the Bosch BNO055, which includes an MCU and provides ready-to-read angles, quarternions and alike. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
