Drift with LSM6DSLTR IMU

zanovis opened this issue · comments

There is pretty significant drift with the LSM6DSLTR, and since it doesn't have a magnetometer I am having trouble filtering large angular changes in an accurate way (Madgwick/Mahony sensor fusion).

Could a future version of Tracer potentially utilize the LSM9S1 to help correct for this drift?

Hello Zanovis,

Thank you so much for your feedback.

The footprint for the LSM9 is identical to that of the LSM6, so you could swap that out and drop it in if it's critical at the moment.

Re. Future plans, due to the chip shortage the prices for the LSM9 was too high, however I have plans for this board and will offer variants soon! Watch this space.

Thanks again for your support and feedback.
