IMU over Bluetooth

Post by rodfrey »

Hi! I'd like to attach an IMU to a gadget and read the sensor data over bluetooth. It seems like the IMU Fusion BNO055 is the easiest way to get IMU data. Can I use the BLE UART Friend to interface to this sensor? The sensor only mentions I2C as a protocol, which as I understand it is similar but different than UART.

Or is there a better option?
Thanks!

Since you know that you want to stream IMU data over bluetooth you probably want to look at a Feather Sense that has everything on one board.
