Basic Functions¶

class BrickletIMUV3(String uid, IPConnection ipcon)¶

Parameters:	uid – Type: String ipcon – Type: IPConnection
Returns:	imuV3 – Type: BrickletIMUV3

Creates an object with the unique device ID uid:

BrickletIMUV3 imuV3 = new BrickletIMUV3("YOUR_DEVICE_UID", ipcon);

This object can then be used after the IP Connection is connected.

BrickletIMUV3.Orientation BrickletIMUV3.getOrientation()¶

Return Object:	heading – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [0 to 5760] roll – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [-1440 to 1440] pitch – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [-2880 to 2880]

Returns the current orientation (heading, roll, pitch) of the IMU Brick as independent Euler angles. Note that Euler angles always experience a gimbal lock. We recommend that you use quaternions instead, if you need the absolute orientation.

If you want to get the orientation periodically, it is recommended to use the OrientationListener listener and set the period with setOrientationCallbackConfiguration().

BrickletIMUV3.LinearAcceleration BrickletIMUV3.getLinearAcceleration()¶

Return Object:	x – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? y – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? z – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ?

Returns the linear acceleration of the IMU Brick for the x, y and z axis. The acceleration is in the range configured with setSensorConfiguration().

The linear acceleration is the acceleration in each of the three axis of the IMU Brick with the influences of gravity removed.

It is also possible to get the gravity vector with the influence of linear acceleration removed, see getGravityVector().

If you want to get the linear acceleration periodically, it is recommended to use the LinearAccelerationListener listener and set the period with setLinearAccelerationCallbackConfiguration().

BrickletIMUV3.GravityVector BrickletIMUV3.getGravityVector()¶

Return Object:	x – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981] y – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981] z – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981]

Returns the current gravity vector of the IMU Brick for the x, y and z axis.

The gravity vector is the acceleration that occurs due to gravity. Influences of additional linear acceleration are removed.

It is also possible to get the linear acceleration with the influence of gravity removed, see getLinearAcceleration().

If you want to get the gravity vector periodically, it is recommended to use the GravityVectorListener listener and set the period with setGravityVectorCallbackConfiguration().

BrickletIMUV3.Quaternion BrickletIMUV3.getQuaternion()¶

Return Object:	w – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1] x – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1] y – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1] z – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1]

Returns the current orientation (w, x, y, z) of the IMU Brick as quaternions.

You have to divide the return values by 16383 (14 bit) to get the usual range of -1.0 to +1.0 for quaternions.

If you want to get the quaternions periodically, it is recommended to use the QuaternionListener listener and set the period with setQuaternionCallbackConfiguration().

BrickletIMUV3.AllData BrickletIMUV3.getAllData()¶

Return Object:

acceleration – Type: int[], Length: 3 0: x – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? 1: y – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? 2: z – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? magneticField – Type: int[], Length: 3 0: x – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 µT, Range: [-20800 to 20800] 1: y – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 µT, Range: [-20800 to 20800] 2: z – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 µT, Range: [-40000 to 40000] angularVelocity – Type: int[], Length: 3 0: x – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °/s, Range: ? 1: y – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °/s, Range: ? 2: z – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °/s, Range: ? eulerAngle – Type: int[], Length: 3 0: heading – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [0 to 5760] 1: roll – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [-1440 to 1440] 2: pitch – Type: int, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [-2880 to 2880] quaternion – Type: int[], Length: 4 0: w – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1] 1: x – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1] 2: y – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1] 3: z – Type: int, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1] linearAcceleration – Type: int[], Length: 3 0: x – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? 1: y – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? 2: z – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ? gravityVector – Type: int[], Length: 3 0: x – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981] 1: y – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981] 2: z – Type: int, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981] temperature – Type: int, Unit: 1 °C, Range: [-128 to 127] calibrationStatus – Type: int, Range: [0 to 255]

Return all of the available data of the IMU Brick.

• acceleration (see getAcceleration())
• magnetic field (see getMagneticField())
• angular velocity (see getAngularVelocity())
• Euler angles (see getOrientation())
• quaternion (see getQuaternion())
• linear acceleration (see getLinearAcceleration())
• gravity vector (see getGravityVector())
• temperature (see getTemperature())
• calibration status (see below)

The calibration status consists of four pairs of two bits. Each pair of bits represents the status of the current calibration.

• bit 0-1: Magnetometer
• bit 2-3: Accelerometer
• bit 4-5: Gyroscope
• bit 6-7: System

A value of 0 means for "not calibrated" and a value of 3 means "fully calibrated". In your program you should always be able to ignore the calibration status, it is used by the calibration window of the Brick Viewer and it can be ignored after the first calibration. See the documentation in the calibration window for more information regarding the calibration of the IMU Brick.

If you want to get the data periodically, it is recommended to use the AllDataListener listener and set the period with setAllDataCallbackConfiguration().

If you want to get the angular velocity periodically, it is recommended to use the AngularVelocityListener alistener nd set the period with setAngularVelocityCallbackConfiguration().

int BrickletIMUV3.getTemperature()¶

Returns:	temperature – Type: int, Unit: 1 °C, Range: [-128 to 127]

Returns the temperature of the IMU Brick. The temperature is measured in the core of the BNO055 IC, it is not the ambient temperature

boolean BrickletIMUV3.saveCalibration()¶

Returns:	calibrationDone – Type: boolean

A call of this function saves the current calibration to be used as a starting point for the next restart of continuous calibration of the IMU Brick.

A return value of true means that the calibration could be used and false means that it could not be used (this happens if the calibration status is not "fully calibrated").

This function is used by the calibration window of the Brick Viewer, you should not need to call it in your program.

void BrickletIMUV3.setSensorFusionMode(int mode)¶

Parameters:	mode – Type: int, Range: See constants, Default: 1

If the fusion mode is turned off, the functions getAcceleration(), getMagneticField() and getAngularVelocity() return uncalibrated and uncompensated sensor data. All other sensor data getters return no data.

Since firmware version 2.0.6 you can also use a fusion mode without magnetometer. In this mode the calculated orientation is relative (with magnetometer it is absolute with respect to the earth). However, the calculation can't be influenced by spurious magnetic fields.

Since firmware version 2.0.13 you can also use a fusion mode without fast magnetometer calibration. This mode is the same as the normal fusion mode, but the fast magnetometer calibration is turned off. So to find the orientation the first time will likely take longer, but small magnetic influences might not affect the automatic calibration as much.

The following constants are available for this function:

For mode:

• BrickletIMUV3.SENSOR_FUSION_OFF = 0
• BrickletIMUV3.SENSOR_FUSION_ON = 1

boolean BrickletIMUV3.getResponseExpected(byte functionId)¶

Parameters:	functionId – Type: byte, Range: See constants
Returns:	responseExpected – Type: boolean

Returns the response expected flag for the function specified by the function ID parameter. It is true if the function is expected to send a response, false otherwise.

For getter functions this is enabled by default and cannot be disabled, because those functions will always send a response. For listener configuration functions it is enabled by default too, but can be disabled by setResponseExpected(). For setter functions it is disabled by default and can be enabled.

Enabling the response expected flag for a setter function allows to detect timeouts and other error conditions calls of this setter as well. The device will then send a response for this purpose. If this flag is disabled for a setter function then no response is sent and errors are silently ignored, because they cannot be detected.

The following constants are available for this function:

For functionId:

• BrickletIMUV3.FUNCTION_SET_SENSOR_CONFIGURATION = 11
• BrickletIMUV3.FUNCTION_SET_SENSOR_FUSION_MODE = 13

Enabling the response expected flag for a setter function allows to detect timeouts and other error conditions calls of this setter as well. The device will then send a response for this purpose. If this flag is disabled for a setter function then no response is sent and errors are silently ignored, because they cannot be detected.

The following constants are available for this function:

For functionId:

• BrickletIMUV3.FUNCTION_SET_SENSOR_CONFIGURATION = 11

Returns:	status – Type: int, Range: [0 to 255]

Writes 64 Bytes of firmware at the position as written by setWriteFirmwarePointer() before. The firmware is written to flash every 4 chunks.

You can only write firmware in bootloader mode.

This function is used by Brick Viewer during flashing. It should not be necessary to call it in a normal user program.

void BrickletIMUV3.writeUID(long uid)¶

Parameters:	uid – Type: long, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Writes a new UID into flash. If you want to set a new UID you have to decode the Base58 encoded UID string into an integer first.

We recommend that you use Brick Viewer to change the UID.

long BrickletIMUV3.readUID()¶

Returns:	uid – Type: long, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Returns the current UID as an integer. Encode as Base58 to get the usual string version.

Constants¶

int BrickletIMUV3.DEVICE_IDENTIFIER¶

This constant is used to identify a IMU Bricklet 3.0.

The getIdentity() function and the IPConnection.EnumerateListener listener of the IP Connection have a deviceIdentifier parameter to specify the Brick's or Bricklet's type.

String BrickletIMUV3.DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME¶

This constant represents the human readable name of a IMU Bricklet 3.0.
