Richard replied to Frank Zhao's discussion ArduIMU V3, source code for DMP?
"There simply isn't any code that uses the DMP. There is ArduIMU v3 software that treats the MPU6000 as a pair of dumb sensors, the same as on the ArduIMU v2. AFAIK, that works but there's little to no processing power left in the AVR to do…"

"Looks like I'm not out of the woods yet. Code linked about is for I2C MPU6050 but the ArduIMU V3 is SPI MPU6000. Does anyone know where the latest and greatest code for this board is on the forum? Is it on the ArduPilot Google Code page or is…"

"LOL!  The MPU9150 is $80!  What a ripoff.   ST has a little board, the "iNemo M1" that they announced awhile back.  Should be in volume production in Q2.  Invensense is trying to catch up with ST now.…"

"You're pretty limited legally.  In most states you're only going to be able to recover your purchase price.  If you legitimately had serious damages, like if you ordered 10k of them and had other contracts and investment…"

"Better, just buy something else. If you're feeling vindictive, take them to task for false advertising - the Invensense advertising claims something that you cannot make the chip do."

"....we can all start to write e-mails to Invensense every day,maybe this will help :-)"

"Here's some bad news from an unacceptably rude response from Invensense: Quite unacceptable for a corporation of any size, especially when they made gains through illegal means (fraud by way of false advertising). If someone here happens to be…"

John Arne Birkeland replied to Frank Zhao's discussion ArduIMU V3, source code for DMP?
"This is purely speculation.. Invensense has sold large quantities of the MPU-60x0 to Nintendo for use in wii controllers. They also deliver chips to Sony. My fear is that to get such large contracts, they have had to make some kind of exclusive deal…"

"After a few emails to Invensense I just gave up and bought something else that's considerably cheaper, and spent the difference on a more powerful MCU. It has affected the power budget but should still be less than APM2 - though not as much…"

"I too am waiting for proper DMP code for this, as I have a research project that simply CANNOT use DCM since it's too slow (looking at >100Hz output, time averaged from 200Hz the DMP provides, even removing GPS from the current code just…"

"I'm sure it's Invensys that are causing the delay and not the DIY Drones team. The whole point of this chip is that the main MCU doesn't have to handle the processing load of converting the raw readings into orientation and…"

"Then don't use it!? *sigh*  It's not like they are sitting still.     If you want to use it, write the code for the DMP yourself?    It seems that Invensense is just being stupid here.  They…"

"*Bump* I don't really want to buy one of these until I can actually use the 'big feature' in a properly licenced form."
