Raspberry Pi Pico W LESSON 40: Measuring Acceleration with the MPU6050 Six Axis IMU

UPDATE: If you are getting an error when you try and import IMU, then change the name of the library folder on your pico from libs to lib. That should fix it.

You guys can help me out over at Patreon, and that will help me keep my gear updated, and help me keep this quality content coming:

In this class we will be using the Sunfounder Raspberry Pi Pico W Keppler Kit. It will make things a lot easier if we are working on identical hardware. the link below is to amazon, and is for the identical hardware I will be using in this entire class.

In this video, I will show you how to measure acceleration using the MPU6050 Six Axis IMU chip. I will give an explanation of the math and physics behind measuring acceleration, and will show you how to incorporate the MPU6050 into your projects. Enjoy!
