Adafruit BNO085 9-DOF Orientation IMU Fusion Breakout

The BNO085 condenses the collective efforts of numerous individuals dedicated to extracting valuable insights from direct motion sensor readings throughout their careers. This wealth of knowledge is compressed into a compact 5.2x3.8mm enclosure, complete with accompanying sensors.

Notably, the BNO085 serves as an upgraded solution to the BNO080, maintaining full backward compatibility while rectifying a previously challenging SPI timeout issue. This enhancement ensures smoother SPI utilization. The '085 model is offered at the same price point, and your existing '080 code seamlessly applies, rendering the transition to '085 effortless.

Engineered by the proficient motion sensing team at CEVA Hillcrest Laboratories, the BNO085 integrates the well-known trio of 3-axis accelerometers, gyroscopes, and magnetometers. These components are skillfully combined with an Arm Cortex M0 processor, empowered by CEVA's SH-2 firmware. This firmware efficiently manages sensor data acquisition, measurement fusion, and data packaging, streamlining the delivery of actionable insights to you.

It's worth noting the unmistakable resemblance between the BNO085 and Bosch Sensortec's BNO055 in terms of nomenclature and description. This similarity is not coincidental; they share foundational hardware, yet they diverge significantly due to an exclusive agreement between Bosch and CEVA. The BNO085 employs the same hardware base as the BNO055 but boasts distinct firmware that operates on it.
