Example Code for Arduino-Read All Sensor Data

Hardware Preparation

• Hardware
  • DFRduino UNO R3 (or similar) x 1
  • BMX160 9-axis Sensor Module x1
  • Jumper wires

Software Preparation

• Software
  • Arduino IDE
  • Download and install the BMX160 Library. (About how to install the library?)

Other Preparation Work

Sample Code

/*!
 * @file readAllData.ino
 * @brief Through the example, you can get the sensor data by using getSensorData:
 * @n     get all data of magnetometer, gyroscope, accelerometer.
 * @n     With the rotation of the sensor, data changes are visible.
