NOTICE: Obsolete Code

This repository is no longer maintained.

The currently supported driver for the BNO080 and related SH2 sensor hubs can be found at https://github.com/ceva-dsp/sh2. And an example project that demonstrates these modules and their driver are at https://github.com/ceva-dsp/sh2-demo-nucleo.

Example Application for Hillcrest BNO080 Development Kit

This repository contains the example application for the Hillcrest BNO080 development kit.

The code runs on an ST Nucleo evaluation board combined with the BNO shield board by Hillcrest. This shield incorporates the BNO080 sensor hub, enabling SH-2 functionality for the demo system.

Requirements

IAR Embedded Workbench for ARM (EWARM) version 7.4
STM32F411 Nucleo board
Hillcrest BNO080 Shield board

Setup

Clone this repository using the --recursive flag with git:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/hcrest/bno080-nucleo-demo.git

Building the Code

Use IAR EWARM to open the workspace, bno080-nucleo-demo/EWARM/Project.eww
Select the sh2-demo-i2c or sh2-demo-spi project configuration.
Run Project -> Rebuild All to compile the project.

Running the Application

Mount the shield board on the Nucleo platform.
Ensure all switches are set properly (switch positions vary based on whether SPI or I2C interface is used.)
Connect the Nucleo board to the development PC via USB.
In IAR EWARM, execute Project -> Download and Debug.
Once the debugger is ready, click the Go button.

The application should print the SH-2 version numbers, then start reading and printing Rotation Vectors from the sensor hub:

Saleae Logic Analyzer Captures

In the LogicCaptures folder, there are example logic analyzer traces of the BNO080's operation with I2C, SPI and UART connections. See the README.txt file located there, for instructions on downloading the viewer application.
