Absolutely love this and you did a fine job here explaining how to do this! I’m seriously going to have to do this. I was worried a bit about the lag until you explained it more. Thanks for covering all the bases... 👍🏼 Buddy

Hello sir! I just want to thank you for sharing this knowledge. I've been searching for weeks for a good website about this sensor and have been unsuccessful. Your tutorial was the only one that worked for me! I had a great day because of you and I hope you're also having a great day.

got it working 2 minutes after finding this video... nice man

You create very few projects but all of your projects are really super awesome and I watch your videos again and again. Keep it up. Waiting for your next video.
:-)

You explain the topics fabulously well on which I was stuck for a lot of time...👍
Thanks a lot!!!
Moreover, keep up the good work!!!

a follow up with Kalman filter would be nice

Fascinating! Excellent video. Very well made and logically developed instruction. Thank you!

[demiurgiac]

Thanks for providing that sample code... just what I was looking for.

Hi.... Thanks for the great video. What software package are using for the 3D representation on the PC?

[jaimezuleta]

Excellent video. Greetings from Venezuela.

[JavierMares]

Cool! Is there a way to reduce the latency? Thanks for sharing.

[PaulMcKillop]

Thanks for such a great video, as usual. I am really looking forward to the next video on the mpu 6050 as I want to try to use it in a project.

Hello sir what is the software of the blue box visual that you use?

[alexnewton]

Inclinometer or angel meter using atan function would be a better project.
Nice and perfect explanation though.

Nice! I'll be waiting eagerly for the next video - I bought a few of the MPU6050s a while ago and got a bit stuck trying to make them work!

Fabulous <3 ... but for the calibration, do we need to adjust it every power up of the sensor ? what's the solution if we want to use it in some permanent project ??

thanks

[uKnIkarus]

Hey, what is the name of the software where you visualize the blue block?

[Mohamm-ed]

Thanks for this video. Can I use this sensor for vibration monitoring?

[VeniceMacasieb-eq]

this type of project. In what sector of industrial industry can it be used? (i hope for a reply, i will wait), Thank you so much

Are you using male-to-male jumper wire?
