Description Adafruit 9-DOF IMU 3D Space Sensor - STEMMA QT / Qwiic

The Adafruit 9-DOF IMU 3D Space Sensor converts data from an accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer into 3D orientation. The BNO055 chip combines these sensors onto a single chip and uses an ARM Cortex-M0 processor. This allows for stable orientation data without complicated algorithms.

This sensor is smaller in STEMMA QT format and has plug-and-play I2C connectors. This saves time because the sensor fusion is done internally. Reading data via I2C is easy and soldering is not required. A QT cable is not included, but is available in the shop.

The BNO055 sensor provides various data: absolute orientation in Euler angles and quaternions, angular velocity, acceleration, magnetic field strength, linear acceleration, gravity and temperature. Arduino (C/C++) and CircuitPython libraries are available. These allow you to quickly read out data.
