Getting Started with ROS2 Navigation - Episode 6 - IMU and IMU Tools

In this video I share some information about the InvenSense ICM 20948 Qwiic Breakout board by Sparkfun, a ROS node which uses the Wiring For ROS library to enable the Sparkfun Arduino library on Jetson and Raspberry Pi. I also discuss IMU Tools by CCNY to visualize and filter IMUs, and touch a little on Transform Trees to set up the next video.

Helpful instructions to get a IMU running on my ROS 2 Humble variant of a Turtlebot

Great video, this is a great introduction for people to get started with IMUs!

Your channel is a gem! Keep it going 👍

Amazing video as always!! Loved the idea of coupling both sensors together. Didn't know you could do that. Can you address the calibration issues for IMUs in future videos please. When I started out, really struggled with cheaper IMUs like mpu6050 and wish there was a better way to calibrate and confirm it was good enough for the robot.

i wish u fellows would hold them tests still to show its stability, Who uses a nav device shaking it around.

Excellent tutorial. This really helps put things into perspective. I’m looking forward to the next one. Thank you!
Since the Sparkfun board is out of stock I’ve been using a GY-521 (no magnetometer)I had laying around. Is the magnetometer a critical part of this project?
