This week I spent a majority of my time reading through the datasheet of the new MCU we got delivered this week. We are planning on setting it up the same way we set up the ESP32 Dev board with the BNO055 IMU sensor to transmit the IMU sensor readings via BLE as the new MCU we received is fully integrated and contains and IMU as well as a Bluetooth module. It is also 1/10th the size of the ESP32 and IMU we already have so exploring this avenue is something we want to pursue as it could potential be very effective for our product. I also spent a decent amount of time writing some of the Kalmann filter and low-pass filters for the existing code we have to smooth the data we are receiving currently from the BNO055 IMU sensor in order to have more accessible and fused code. This will be portable for any future code that may need to be written onto the new MCU we received if we decide to switch gears and pursue the product with the MCU.
We are on track regarding our timeline and I hope to have the new MCU fully setup by next week with the same functionality as the current IMU+ESP32 for data to be transmitted via BLE as well as the filters I worked on this week to be added on top of that.
