Get raw gyro readings as fast as possible


Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I have a project, where I want to measure angular changes of a vibrating

platform. 

 

I want to know, what is happening with platform orientation in very short time window of 20 ms,

so i want to get as many values in that time as possible. 

 

In specification it says, that 8 KHz sampling can be done by gyro.

How much of that is actually achievable and how can I do that?

 

How about DMP values, what is max rate of them? (only yaw, pitch roll)

 

Thank you for any help

Hi-

 

To get the 8KHz sample rate, you set the DLPF to 0. Otherwise it is set to 1KHz. This is set in the Rowberg MPU libraries. Not sure of what is achievable.

 

DMP values are at fixed rate of 200 Hz.. Depending on what processor you are using, there is code for DMP on Github.
