BerryIMUv3 is also fitted with a barometric sensor (BMP388) which can be used to calculate altitude. A temperature sensor is also included.
IMUs can be found in devices like: quad copters, smart phones, segways, Wii remote, etc.. and are used to sense movement and orientation.
BerryIMUv3 is compatible will all models of Raspberry Pi
It is also compatible with Arduino, Teensy, ESP8266.
Both 3.3V and 5V are supported. (We have included logic level shifters for 5V use)

I bought two of these because they're the easiest I've found to interface with a raspberry pi pico using micropython. So happy I found it. I'm still trying to perfect the z axis compass correction. Can't wait to try it with a new pico 2!

This is the IMU to buy if you want to use it on a Raspberry Pi. "Berry" provides a "Standard Package" of software on their website and once unpacked just simply works. I bought someone else's IMU first but they didn't provide any Python code examples, so I had to return it. Then I looked into this IMU and there was lots of python code. Simply type "unzip BerryIMU-master" into the command line editor on your Pi computer and it installs. I picked the code with the compass, ran the code and it started printing out data. I then modified the code to operate inside Tkinter to give me X, Y, and compass so I can point and level my telescope quickly in the future.In the photo you see my telescope "CNC" drive suitcase. I put the Berry IMU in a surface mount telephone box (seen on the floor) and I use a telephone cable to attach it to another phone box, which is attached to the Pi's SCL and SDA pins. Be sure to get their short cable to attach the IMU to the Pi terminals for writing and testing your code. I cut the cable wires so I could attach the IMU to the telephone box.

This IMU is fast, my loop times while retrieving and processing data on an Arduino mega are below 10ms. Support for 3.3 and 5v and many other features make this IMU very versatile. The code/libraries are good once you get them up and running. The acc/gyro filter was a nice touch. My only complaint is that their was no code/library included for the barometer/temperature sensor, however this was fairly simple to find online and set up. Overall would recommend!

Shout out to Ozzmaker for all the hard work in making this board! Very straight forward compared to other IMU's.
