M5 Stick C IMU orientation
-
Hi everyone,
Probably a really daft question but i can’t find an orientation diagram for the Stick C for the IMU with regard to its case!
I’ve searched everywhere to no joy. A simple diagram with regard to looking at the screen where xyz are pointing
I’m trying to use the C as a reference for an IMU grove sensor using a rotating image of a block -
@drew-p Simple answer to any IMU:
Just put it flat on a surface. The axis that shows ~ 1.00 is 1 gravity, the others should be ~ 0.00
Shown here is the AtomS3 built-in IMU with the third reading (az) showing "1g" .
You can roll it on its side to see x or y.
Hope this helps.

May not understand what l meant. I need to know what orientation is for X Y Z with regard to the stick
Does X lie along the long axis of the case or the short so Y would be the other way.
I’m assuming that Z is from front to back, I.e screen to rear label but I need to know the directions of X and Y
There’s a diagram on Grove IMU sensor but nothing on the Stick C -
@teastain thanks for your reply but I’m after the orientation of XYZ on the Stick C. Does X run along the long axis, from usb connection to other end, or from side to side?
I assume Z is from screen to base where label is
Can’t find anything in the documentation, or I’ve missed it!
Thanks again

I'm sure that the IMU is place so that Y points to the top of the StickC.
