Member Function Documentation

void getAccelero ( float *  data )

Reads all accelero data, gives the acceleration in m/s2.

Function uses the last setup value of the full scale range, if you manually set in another range, this won't work.

Parameters:
data- pointer to float array with length three: data[0] = X, data[1] = Y, data[2] = Z

Definition at line 120 of file MPU6050.cpp.

void getAcceleroRaw ( int *  data )

Definition at line 96 of file MPU6050.cpp.

int getAcceleroRawZ ( void   )

Reads the accelero z-axis.

Returns:
16-bit signed integer z-axis accelero data

Definition at line 104 of file MPU6050.cpp.

void getGyro ( float *  data )

Reads all gyro data, gives the gyro in rad/s.

Function uses the last setup value of the full scale range, if you manually set in another range, this won't work.

Parameters:
data- pointer to float array with length three: data[0] = X, data[1] = Y, data[2] = Z

Definition at line 196 of file MPU6050.cpp.
