Plotting (Graphing) Accelerometer + Gyro MPU6050 using Arduino and Processing

GET CODE HERE:

The InvenSense MPU-6050 sensor contains a MEMS accelerometer and a MEMS gyro in a single chip. It is very accurate, as it contains 16-bits analog to digital conversion hardware for each channel.

The gyro+ accelerometer simultaneously puts out 6 readings : g, gy, gz, ax, ay, az,

Processing is a flexible software sketchbook and a language for learning how to code within the context of the visual arts. Processing was actually one of the programs that Arduino was originally based on and is a great way to visualise arduino sensor outputs

There are tens of thousands of students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists who use Processing for learning and prototyping.

WEBSITES:

code Arduino:
#include "I2Cdev.h" // include the I2Cdev library
#include "MPU6050.h" // include the accelerometer library
MPU6050 accelgyro; // set device to MPU6050
int16_t ax, ay, az, gx, gy, gz; // define accel as ax,ay,az
int baselineX = 0;

void setup() {
baselineX = ax;
}
void loop() {
delay(2);
}

code Processing:

Serial myPort; // The serial port
int xPos = 1; // horizontal position of the graph
float inByte = 0;

void setup () {
// set the window size:
size(1000, 600);

// List all the available serial ports

// I know that the first port in the serial list on my Mac is always my
// Open whatever port is the one you're using.

// don't generate a serialEvent() unless you get a newline character:

// set initial background:
background(0);
}

void draw () {
// draw the line:
stroke(127, 34, 255);
line(xPos, height, xPos, height - inByte);

// at the edge of the screen, go back to the beginning:
if (xPos greater= width) { //careful with this line requires a symbol that is not allowed in YouTube
xPos = 0;
background(0);
} else {
// increment the horizontal position:
xPos++;
}
}

void serialEvent (Serial myPort) {
// get the ASCII string:

if (inString != null) {
// trim off any whitespace:
inString = trim(inString);
// convert to an int and map to the screen height:
inByte = float(inString);
println(inByte);
inByte = map(inByte, 0, 1023, 0, height);
}
}

You are one of the best teacher for Arduino tutorial.

[sudinroy]

Sir, can we see the graphic picture at Arduino IDE serial monitor or use other IDE software for viewing this graph ?

[juneharkevin]

Bro, I'm having one doubt in the waveform graph the x axis and the y axis are mentioned as Amplitude and Time or not?

[swugcdmx]

Hi, nice job, one question: can this code be compatible or appliable to LSM6DS3-Arduino Uno Wifi rev 2?

[TheBannasak]

Which is the best sensor between MPU6050 and ADXL335 in your opinion?

[aimansebir]

I go to the link to download the file...and its broken...can u upload again pliz

[carlosalonzo]

would this work with an ESP32-pico and MPU 6050?

[sudinroy]

Very nice video and well explaining
vedio also.Thank you sir.

[schiggo]

is ther a way to pring more than one line

[mrmatias]

Indeed, you’re really gifted teacher. You are the best 🤭. Can u help me to get the code. It isn’t available in thy link.

[rameshchandrakasan]

Sir, I could not able to get the Plotting code, Pls will you help me. i have checked the Robotix site also

[parulaggarwal]

Whats the rate at which data is plotted....how many samples per second? If 8000 samples per second feasible?

[hjedpej]

Thank you sir. This is very simple, clear and distinct. But can you tell me why the MPU6050 gives sometimes NaN(Not a Number) value as its output?? It sometimes disturbs the processing graph and it freezes the graph. And again I am helpful that you uploaded the source code. Not just uploaded the demo video like a lot of other videos.

[yasirshahzad]

can not download the file. showing me no file

[animeshanand]

Could the Electronic Schematic Diagram be made available?
