CircuitPython helper library for the MPU6050 6-DoF Accelerometer and Gyroscope
This driver depends on:
Adafruit CircuitPython <https://github.com/adafruit/circuitpython>
_Bus Device <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_BusDevice>
_Register <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Register>
_Please ensure all dependencies are available on the CircuitPython filesystem.
This is easily achieved by downloading
the Adafruit library and driver bundle <https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_CircuitPython_Bundle>
_.
On supported GNU/Linux systems like the Raspberry Pi, you can install the driver locally from PyPI <https://pypi.org/project/adafruit-circuitpython-mpu6050/>
_. To install for current user:
.. code-block:: shell
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mpu6050
To install system-wide (this may be required in some cases):
.. code-block:: shell
sudo pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mpu6050
To install in a virtual environment in your current project:
.. code-block:: shell
mkdir project-name && cd project-name
python3 -m venv .venv
source .venv/bin/activate
pip3 install adafruit-circuitpython-mpu6050
.. code-block:: python3
import time
import board
import adafruit_mpu6050
i2c = board.I2C() # uses board.SCL and board.SDA
mpu = adafruit_mpu6050.MPU6050(i2c)
while True:
print("Acceleration: X:%.2f, Y: %.2f, Z: %.2f m/s^2"%(mpu.acceleration))
print("Gyro X:%.2f, Y: %.2f, Z: %.2f degrees/s"%(mpu.gyro))
print("Temperature: %.2f C"%mpu.temperature)
print("")
time.sleep(1)
