API

To allow non-blocking usage, nearly every function of the Rust bindings returns a wrapper around a mpsc::Receiver. To block until the function has finished and get your result, call one of the receiver's recv variants. Those return either the result sent by the device, or any error occurred.

Functions returning a result directly will block until the device has finished processing the request.

All functions listed below are thread-safe, those which return a receiver are lock-free.

Basic Functions

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::new(uid: &str, ip_connection: &IpConnection) → ImuV3Bricklet
Parameters:
  • uid – Type: &str
  • ip_connection – Type: &IPConnection
Returns:
  • imu_v3 – Type: ImuV3Bricklet

Creates a new ImuV3Bricklet object with the unique device ID uid and adds it to the IPConnection ip_connection:

let imu_v3 = ImuV3Bricklet::new("YOUR_DEVICE_UID", &ip_connection);

This device object can be used after the IP connection has been connected.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_orientation(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<Orientation>
Return Object:
  • heading – Type: i16, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [0 to 5760]
  • roll – Type: i16, Unit: 1/16 °, Range: [-1440 to 1440]
  • pitch – Type: i16, 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 ImuV3Bricklet::get_orientation_callback_receiver callback and set the period with ImuV3Bricklet::set_orientation_callback_configuration.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_linear_acceleration(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<LinearAcceleration>
Return Object:
  • x – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ?
  • y – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ?
  • z – Type: i16, 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 ImuV3Bricklet::set_sensor_configuration.

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 ImuV3Bricklet::get_gravity_vector.

If you want to get the linear acceleration periodically, it is recommended to use the ImuV3Bricklet::get_linear_acceleration_callback_receiver callback and set the period with ImuV3Bricklet::set_linear_acceleration_callback_configuration.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_gravity_vector(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<GravityVector>
Return Object:
  • x – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981]
  • y – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981]
  • z – Type: i16, 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 ImuV3Bricklet::get_linear_acceleration.

If you want to get the gravity vector periodically, it is recommended to use the ImuV3Bricklet::get_gravity_vector_callback_receiver callback and set the period with ImuV3Bricklet::set_gravity_vector_callback_configuration.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_quaternion(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<Quaternion>
Return Object:
  • w – Type: i16, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1]
  • x – Type: i16, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1]
  • y – Type: i16, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1]
  • z – Type: i16, 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 ImuV3Bricklet::get_quaternion_callback_receiver callback and set the period with ImuV3Bricklet::set_quaternion_callback_configuration.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_all_data(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<AllData>

    • 3: z – Type: i16, Unit: 1/16383, Range: [-214 + 1 to 214 - 1]
  • linear_acceleration – Type: [i16; 3]
    • 0: x – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ?
    • 1: y – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ?
    • 2: z – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: ?
  • gravity_vector – Type: [i16; 3]
    • 0: x – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981]
    • 1: y – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981]
    • 2: z – Type: i16, Unit: 1 cm/s², Range: [-981 to 981]
  • temperature – Type: i8, Unit: 1 °C, Range: [-128 to 127]
  • calibration_status – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]

Return all of the available data of the IMU Brick.

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 ImuV3Bricklet::get_all_data_callback_receiver callback and set the period with ImuV3Bricklet::set_all_data_callback_configuration.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::set_sensor_fusion_mode(&self, mode: u8) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • mode – Type: u8, Range: See constants, Default: 1

If the fusion mode is turned off, the functions ImuV3Bricklet::get_acceleration, ImuV3Bricklet::get_magnetic_field and ImuV3Bricklet::get_angular_velocity 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:

  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_SENSOR_FUSION_OFF = 0
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_SENSOR_FUSION_ON = 1
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_SENSOR_FUSION_ON_WITHOUT_MAGNETOMETER = 2

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_sensor_fusion_mode(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Returns:
  • mode – Type: u8, Range: See constants, Default: 1

Callbacks

Callbacks can be registered to receive time critical or recurring data from the device. The registration is done with the corresponding get_*_callback_receiver function, which returns a receiver for callback events.

Note

Using callbacks for recurring events is always preferred compared to using getters. It will use less USB bandwidth and the latency will be a lot better, since there is no round trip time.

Receivers created with this function receive All Data events.

This callback is triggered periodically with the period that is set by ImuV3Bricklet::set_all_data_callback_configuration. The members of the received struct are as for ImuV3Bricklet::get_all_data.

Virtual Functions

Virtual functions don't communicate with the device itself, but operate only on the API bindings device object. They can be called without the corresponding IP Connection object being connected.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_api_version(&self) → [u8; 3]
Return Object:
  • api_version – Type: [u8; 3]
    • 0: major – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 1: minor – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]
    • 2: revision – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]

Returns the version of the API definition implemented by this API bindings. This is neither the release version of this API bindings nor does it tell you anything about the represented Brick or Bricklet.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_response_expected(&mut self, function_id: u8) → bool
Parameters:
  • function_id – Type: u8, Range: See constants
Returns:
  • response_expected – Type: bool

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 callback configuration functions it is enabled by default too, but can be disabled by ImuV3Bricklet::set_response_expected. 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 function_id:

  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_SENSOR_CONFIGURATION = 11
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_FUNCTION_SET_SENSOR_FUSION_MODE = 13

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::set_response_expected(&mut self, function_id: u8, response_expected: bool) → ()
Parameters:
  • function_id – Type: u8, Range: See constants
  • response_expected – Type: bool

Changes the response expected flag of the function specified by the function ID parameter. This flag can only be changed for setter (default value: false) and callback configuration functions (default value: true). For getter functions it is always 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.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::set_response_expected_all(&mut self, response_expected: bool) → ()
Parameters:
  • response_expected – Type: bool

Changes the response expected flag for all setter and callback configuration functions of this device at once.

Internal Functions

Internal functions are used for maintenance tasks such as flashing a new firmware of changing the UID of a Bricklet. These task should be performed using Brick Viewer instead of using the internal functions directly.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::set_bootloader_mode(&self, mode: u8) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Parameters:
  • mode – Type: u8, Range: See constants
Returns:
  • status – Type: u8, Range: See constants

Sets the bootloader mode and returns the status after the requested mode change was instigated.

You can change from bootloader mode to firmware mode and vice versa. A change from bootloader mode to firmware mode will only take place if the entry function, device identifier and CRC are present and correct.

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

The following constants are available for this function:

For mode:

  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_BOOTLOADER = 0
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE = 1
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_BOOTLOADER_WAIT_FOR_REBOOT = 2
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE_WAIT_FOR_REBOOT = 3
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE_WAIT_FOR_ERASE_AND_REBOOT = 4

For status:

  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_OK = 0
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_INVALID_MODE = 1
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_NO_CHANGE = 2
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_ENTRY_FUNCTION_NOT_PRESENT = 3
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_DEVICE_IDENTIFIER_INCORRECT = 4
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_STATUS_CRC_MISMATCH = 5
pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::get_bootloader_mode(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Returns:
  • mode – Type: u8, Range: See constants

Returns the current bootloader mode, see ImuV3Bricklet::set_bootloader_mode.

The following constants are available for this function:

For mode:

  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_BOOTLOADER = 0
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE = 1
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_BOOTLOADER_WAIT_FOR_REBOOT = 2
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE_WAIT_FOR_REBOOT = 3
  • IMU_V3_BRICKLET_BOOTLOADER_MODE_FIRMWARE_WAIT_FOR_ERASE_AND_REBOOT = 4
pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::set_write_firmware_pointer(&self, pointer: u32) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • pointer – Type: u32, Unit: 1 B, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

Sets the firmware pointer for ImuV3Bricklet::write_firmware. The pointer has to be increased by chunks of size 64. The data is written to flash every 4 chunks (which equals to one page of size 256).

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

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::write_firmware(&self, data: [u8; 64]) → ConvertingReceiver<u8>
Parameters:
  • data – Type: [u8; 64], Range: [0 to 255]
Returns:
  • status – Type: u8, Range: [0 to 255]

Writes 64 Bytes of firmware at the position as written by ImuV3Bricklet::set_write_firmware_pointer 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.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::write_uid(&self, uid: u32) → ConvertingReceiver<()>
Parameters:
  • uid – Type: u32, 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.

pub fn ImuV3Bricklet::read_uid(&self) → ConvertingReceiver<u32>
Returns:
  • uid – Type: u32, Range: [0 to 232 - 1]

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

Constants

pub const ImuV3Bricklet::DEVICE_IDENTIFIER

This constant is used to identify a IMU Bricklet 3.0.

The ImuV3Bricklet::get_identity function and the IpConnection::get_enumerate_callback_receiver callback of the IP Connection have a device_identifier parameter to specify the Brick's or Bricklet's type.

pub const ImuV3Bricklet::DEVICE_DISPLAY_NAME

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