This driver implements support for the Bosch BNO055 Absolute
Orientation 9DOF Fusion Hub. It was implemented on the Adafruit
variant at https://www.adafruit.com/products/2472.
The BNO055 is a System in Package (SiP), integrating a triaxial 14-bit
accelerometer, a triaxial 16-bit gyroscope with a range of ±2000
degrees per second, a triaxial geomagnetic sensor and a 32-bit cortex
M0+ microcontroller running Bosch Sensortec sensor fusion software, in
a single package.
This sensor handles the hard problem of combining various sensor
information into a reliable measurement of sensor orientation (refered
to as 'sensor fusion'). The onboard MCU runs this software and can
provide fusion output in the form of Euler Angles, Quaternions, Linear
Acceleration, and Gravity Vectors in 3 axes.
The focus on this driver has been on supporting the fusion components.
Less support is available for use of this device as a generic
accelerometer, gyroscope and magnetometer, however enough
infrastructure is available to add any missing functionality.
