Tilt Compensated Compass

Tilt Compensated Compass

This instructable explains how to make a tilt compensated compass using an Arduino UNO R3, an LCD display, and an IvenSense MPU-9250 multi-chip-module that contains an MPU-6050 accelerometer / gyro and an AK8963 magnetometer within the same package. The LCD simultaneously displays the Heading, (P)itch, and (R)oll. The heading accuracy is within 2 degrees depending

Arduino datalogging accelerometer with µ SD storage

Arduino datalogging accelerometer with Micro-SD storage

Thanks to Will Greiman’s Fat16 library for the Arduino, I finally got a useful version of this datalogger working! Here’s the schematic: And here’s the code. The code is highly configurable: it can save raw A/D values or converted values, it allows software-defined gain, it can collect for a set time or until user input,

Arduino Based Vehicle Accident Alert System using GPS GSM and Accelerometer

Arduino Based Vehicle Accident Alert System using GPS, GSM and Accelerometer

In our previous tutorials, we have learned about How to interface GPS module with Computer, how to build a Arduino GPS Clock and how to Track vehicle using GSM and GPS.  Here in this project, we are going to build a Arduino based vehicle accident alert system using GPS, GSM and accelerometer. Accelerometer detects the sudden

Window Painting Robot

Window Painting Robot (arduino, processing, accelerometer)

The idea for this project came from one of my favorite ‘ibles: the polargraph. I loved the drawing style and thought how cool would it be to do this on the side of a building? Unfortunately the challenges to setting up such a large polargraph on a student budget pushed me to find an alternate

Arduino Memsic 2125 Accelerometer

Memsic 2125 Accelerometer using Arduino

The Memsic 2125 (datasheet) is a two-axis accelerometer capable of measuring acceleration up to plus or minus 2g. It has a simple digital interface: two pins (one for each axis) emit pulses whose duration corresponds to the acceleration of that axis. By measuring the length of that pulse, in microseconds, using the Arduino’s pulseIn() function,
