I recently ordered a GY-80 IMU off of eBay for $16.00
including shipping, and I'm pretty excited to learn with it.
for now all I can do is wait for it to come, and do a little

The GY-80 Inertial Measurement Unit contains the
following sensors:
L3G4200D - 3axis 16bit gyro with ±250, 500, 2000°/sec
ranges
ADXL345 - 3 axis 10-13bit Accelerometer with ±2g, 4g,
8g, 16g ranges
HMC5883L - 3 Axis, 12bit Magnetometer with ±0.88, 1.3,
1.9, 2.5, 4.0, 4.7, 5.6, 8.1 gauss ranges
BMP085 - 300-1100hPa Barometer (16-19bits) +
Temperature (16bits)

It communicates through I2C so it will hopefully be fairly

straight forward to setup and working with my Teensy 3.0.
Does anyone have any experience or tips to share on using
any of these sensors?

neep I don't have one of these, but looks a lot like my GY-521s
that I'm using in my LED staffs. I'm happy to share code if

you're interested, perhaps the accelerometer and
gyroscope raw readout stuff is the same.
