Chapter 2 Glove Implementation 51 MPU-6050

2.6 MPU-6050
2.6.1 MPU-6050 Overview
The MPU-6050 Motion Processing Unit with integrated 6-Axis
sensor fusion using its field-proven and proprietary Motion Fusion
engine for handset and tablet applications, game controller motion
pointer remote controls, and other consumer devices. The MPU-
6050 has an embedded 3-axis MEMS gyroscope, a 3-axis MEMS
accelerometer, and a Digital Motion Processor (DMP) hardware
accelerator engine with an auxiliary I2C port that interfaces to 3rd
party digital sensors such as magnetometers. When connected to a
3-axis magnetometer, the MPU-6050 delivers acomplete 9-axis
Motion Fusion output to its primary I2C or SPI port. The MPU-6050 combines acceleration and rotational motion plus heading information into a single data stream .
