## Overview

The Adafruit BNO055 breakout board features Bosch’s smart 9-DOF sensor fusion technology, delivering highly accurate absolute orientation, angular velocity, acceleration, magnetic field, and temperature data via I2C. Designed for robotics, drones, wearables, and AR/VR, it offers ±0.05° measurement accuracy in a compact 7.6 x 5.1 x 2.5 cm, 9g package, supported by comprehensive tutorials for rapid prototyping.

## Description

International products have separate terms, are sold from abroad and may differ from local products, including fit, age ratings, and language of product, labeling or instructions.

Review: Fascinating to use - Followed a you tube vid and made an onscreen motion picture following the movement of this chip. Fun to do
Review: Didn’t work - The board didn’t work when it was installed in my system. The board is not detectable on the I2C bus. I believe the board was probably damaged in transit as it arrived in a plain envelope with no padding or protection. Very disappointed. Purchased a replacement for the Pi Hut and that one worked 1st time.

## Features

- Meaningful sensor data in minutes with Bosch's smart BNO055 smart 9-ODF sensor
- Data output over I2C
- Absolute orientation, angular velocity, acceleration, magnetic field strength, linear acceleration, gravity, temperature

## Questions & Answers

**Q: As i understand, this sensor is good for orientation. but is also better for 3d position calculation, then the cheaper imus?**
A: The linear acceleration comes only relative to the Chip's coordinate frame. Getting absolute "earth-frame" acceleration requires 3D vector rotations (Adafruit might do this, but I did my own). Regardless, double integrating acceleration to get position has a lot of drift error. The fusion acceleration data (gravity removed) only updates at 100Hz. I tried integrating at 60Hz with no filtering and picking the chip up off the table caused a velocity drift of ~1m/s. Unusable! Getting accurate *position* readings for any IMU is an incredibly intricate science regardless of the IMU capabilities.

**Q: Does anybody know about the effect of vibrations on this sensor?**
A: This device is usually used in fusion modes which filter out noise, including vibration, to a significant degree in order to calculate absolute orientation and direction. You can access the sensors in raw mode to fully expose the vibration. The Adafruit website has example code and a link to the Bosh BNO055 data sheet.

**Q: Angular Orientation? 
Does this chip allow me to get an angular orientation? Will it produce a live angle reading?**
A: Yes

**Q: Is it possible to connect this through USB to my computer?**
A: Not directly.  You would need to connect it to something like an Arduino or Raspberry Pi, and write code for those processors to get the data into your PC.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Plenty of information on line to support the device
*by I***0 on 1 November 2019*

Recognised manufacturer, only a couple of connections required to get data out of the device. Purchased the unit to study about inertia devices. Only disadvantage so far is that its a bit pricey compared with similar devices but probably more reliable
