    BMI270 Calibration for the orientation and position

    BMI270 Calibration for the orientation and position

    Hello! I'm planning to use BMI270 to track the orientation and position in real time. I wanted to ask if the Gyroscope and Accelerometer need to be manually calibrated (Especially the scale of the Gyroscope). Or Gyro and Acc come already pre-calibrated in the production? Thanks!

    Hello quat_wizard,

    If you have third-party algorithms, generally these algorithms will support calibration.

    If you don't have an algorithm, you could refer FOC in BMI270 data sheet, If you want to do offset compensation.
    If you want to do sensitivity error compensation for gyroscope, you could refer CRT in BMI270 data sheet.

    There was also reference code in github: https://github.com/BoschSensortec/BMI270-Sensor-API/tree/master/examples
