BMI160-Arduino

This driver is for BMI160 6DoF sensor breakout boards which are connected through the Arduino SPI. Derived from the Intel's CurieIMU driver for the Arduino/Genuino 101.

Intel's driver repository: https://github.com/01org/corelibs-arduino101/tree/master/libraries/CurieIMU

How to install

Copy all files of this project to the your Arduino IDE library folder.

Example:

cp ~/github/BMI160-Arduino ~/Documents/Arduino/libraries/

Circuit

You should connect some digital out pin to the CSB of the BMI160 and tell the number of the pin to the initialize method, begin().

Code

#include <BMI160Gen.h>

BMI160GenClass BMI160;
const int select_pin = 10;

void setup() {
  Serial.begin(9600); // initialize Serial communication
  while (!Serial);    // wait for the serial port to open

  // initialize device
  BMI160.begin(select_pin);
}

void loop() {
  int gx, gy, gz;         // raw gyro values

  // read raw gyro measurements from device
  BMI160.readGyro(gx, gy, gz);

  // display tab-separated gyro x/y/z values
  Serial.print("g:\t");
  Serial.print(gx);
  Serial.print("\t");
  Serial.print(gy);
  Serial.print("\t");
  Serial.print(gz);
  Serial.println();

  delay(500);
}
