How MEMS Accelerometer Gyroscope Magnetometer Work & Arduino Tutorial

howtomechatronics.com/how-it-... ► Find more details, circuit schematics and source codes here.
In this article we will learn how the MEMS accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer work and how to use them with the Arduino Board. Also with the Processing IDE we will make some practical applications using the sensors.

    Great video. And because you do not use a library it gives more details on the inner working of the sensors.

    This code is simple and clean. I learned to program by studying pinball machine firmware at a time when the engineers were forced to use assembler language for 8 bit processors. The Williams pinballs were using the MC6800 first, then the MC6809. When I started to use C language, I found natural to check that the compiler generate the same assembler code as the hand coded version that I knew for years. The code to read two I2C bytes and make it appear as a single 16 bit integer would be: X0 = Wire.read(); //get D7-D0, the 8 least significant bits X1 = Wire.read(); //get D15-D8, the 8 most significant bits X_out = (X1

    Wondering why you divide by 256 instead of shifting (so, SO much faster). Instead of Xa = X_out/256; Xa = X_out >> 8; This might make up for the lag of the cube that you see. Just my humble opinion... GREAT video though!!!

    I'm really lost between the three sensors! Are they similar or what?! Do they share similar functionality or they are completely different? I learned some of the HMC5883L and got the atan2(x,y) to get the heading which is I guess in radian. So I got the 360 degrees heading, but what does the z-axis do? And then what does the accelerometer has to offer other than the HMC5883L? And how's the gyroscope is different than the other two?
