Hi all I have a SF 9DOF Razor IMU with the supplied SF firmware connected and talking to my PC via a FTDI card and USB cable. I tried a Bluetooth link but the supply of data to Python was not consistent causing Python to lock up. I have tinkered with the Python interface to work with the SF firmware and it now displays the raw magnetometer XYZ outputs (not Euler angles).   Now I am trying to port the AHRS code to work on the Razor IMU with AVR Studio 4 and Webbotlib, which I shall publish with…See More
