## Description

The Adafruit BNO055 breakout delivers complete 9-DOF orientation sensing with onboard sensor fusion — no complex algorithms to write yourself. The Bosch BNO055 combines an accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer on a single die with an ARM Cortex-M0 processor that handles all fusion calculations internally, outputting ready-to-use orientation data over I2C. The breakout includes a 3.3V regulator, logic level shifting for I2C and reset pins, and an external 32.768 KHz crystal for optimal performance. Interrupt and address-selection pins are broken out for advanced configurations. Sensor Outputs Absolute Orientation (Euler) – Three-axis orientation on a 360° sphere (100 Hz) Absolute Orientation (Quaternion) – Four-point quaternion for precise manipulation (100 Hz) Angular Velocity – Three-axis rotation speed in rad/s (100 Hz) Acceleration – Three-axis gravity + linear motion in m/s² (100 Hz) Linear Acceleration – Three-axis acceleration minus gravity in m/s² (100 Hz) Gravity Vector – Three-axis gravitational acceleration in m/s² (100 Hz) Magnetic Field Strength – Three-axis in µT (20 Hz) Temperature – Ambient temperature in °C (1 Hz) Key Features Onboard Sensor Fusion – BNO055 handles all orientation calculations internally I2C Interface – 3.3V and 5V logic safe 3.3V Regulator – Onboard with logic level shifting External Crystal – 32.768 KHz for best performance Arduino and CircuitPython Support – Libraries available for both platforms Also Available BNO055 STEMMA QT / Qwiic Version – Smaller form factor with plug-and-play I2C connectors Ideal For Robotics and drone orientation Motion tracking and gesture detection VR/AR controllers Compass and navigation projects Package Contents 1× Adafruit BNO055 9-DOF IMU Breakout (assembled and tested) 1× Header strip Note: Soldering is required to attach the header for breadboard use.
