this is the source code of the Easy IMU GUI application. The application requires that you have the Easy IMU Module (i.e MPU9250 EIMU MODULE) and is connected to your PC via USB serial communication.

• This would run on Linux (Ubuntu), Windows, and MAC OS

• Ensure you have python3 installed on your PC and also pip

• install python virtual environment

  sudo apt install python3-pip   # linux or mac users
  sudo apt install python3-venv   # linux or mac users

  OR

  pip install virtualenv   # windows users (ensure you have pip installed)

• Ensure you have the Easy IMU Module connected to the PC.

• Download (by clicking on the green Code button above) or clone the repo into your PC using git clone

  you can use this command if you want to clone the repo:

  git clone https://github.com/robocre8/eimu_setup_application.git

• change directory into the root eimu_setup_application folder

  cd eimu_setup_application/

• create a python virtual environment named .env in the root folder

  python3 -m venv .env

• activate the virtual environment

  source .env/bin/activate

• you should see now that you are in the .env virtual environment

• install all required python modules

  pip3 install -r requirements.txt

• now you can run the app in the virtual environment

  python3 app.py

• Now follow this tutorial on how to calibrate and setup the Easy IMU Module

• once you are done using the application, just close and dectivate the environment

    deactivate
