An attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) consists of sensors on three axes that provide attitude information for aircraft, including roll, pitch and yaw. These are sometimes referred to as MARG (Magnetic, Angular Rate, and Gravity)[1] sensors and consist of either solid-state or microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) gyroscopes, accelerometers and magnetometers. They are designed to replace traditional mechanical gyroscopic flight instruments.

A basic IMU (Intertial Measurement Unit) generally provides raw sensor data, whereas an AHRS takes this data one step further, converting it into heading or direction in degrees, converting the raw altitude data into standard units like feet or meters, etc.

Adafruit's 10DOF (10 Degrees of Freedom)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom[^] breakout board allows you to capture ten distinct types of motion or orientation related data.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- LSM303DLHC - a 3-axis accelerometer (up to +/-16g) and a 3-axis magnetometer (up to +/-8.1 gauss) on a single die
|
|
- L3GD20 - a 3-axis gyroscope (up to +/-2000 dps)
|
|
- BMP180 - A barometric pressure sensor (300..1100 hPa) that can be used to calculate altitude, with an additional on-board temperature sensor
|
|
|
|
=== Connecting It Up
|
|
|
|
Basic Setup
|
|
|
|
- Connect the **SCL** pin on the breakout to the **SCL** pin on your Arduino. On an UNO & '328 based Arduino, this is also known as **A5**
|
|
- Connect the **SDA** pin on the breakout to the **SDA** pin on your Arduino. On an UNO & '328 based Arduino, this is also known as **A4**
|
|
- Connect the **VIN** pin on the breakout to **3.3V** or **5V** on your Uno (5V is preferred but if you have a 3V logic Arduino 3V is best)
|
|
- Connect the **GND** pin on the breakout to the **GND** pin on your Uno
|
|
|
|
That's it! With those four wires, you should be able to talk to any of the I2C chips on the board and run any of the example sketches.

|
|
|
|
Advanced Setup
|
|
|
|
- **GINT** - The interrupt pin on the L3GD20 gyroscope
|
|
- **GRDY** - The 'ready' pin on the L3GD20 gyroscope
|
|
- **LIN1** - Interrupt pin 1 on the LSM303DLHC
|
|
- **LIN2** - Interrupt pin 2 on the LSM303DLHC
|
|
- **LRDY** - The ready pin on the LSM303DLHC
|
|
|
|
These pins are all outputs from the 10-DOF breakout and are all 3.3V logic

=== Downloading Libraries
|
|
|
|
Place the files in the Arduino Sketch Folder '/libraries' sub-folder. You should end up with a structure like this:
|
|
|
|
- arduinosketches/libraries/Adafruit_10DOF
|
|
- arduinosketches/libraries/Adafruit_BMP085
|
|
- arduinosketches/libraries/Adafruit_L3GD20_U
|
|
- arduinosketches/libraries/Adafruit_LSM303DLHC
|
|
- arduinosketches/libraries/Adafruit_Sensor
