## What it is
Arduino sketches and supporting code for the MPU-9250 9-DoF motion sensor, including calibration, self-test, and AHRS sensor fusion using Madgwick and Mahony filters. Includes variants for Teensy 3.1 and STM32 Nucleo (mbed) boards.

## Use cases
- read accelerometer gyroscope and magnetometer data from MPU-9250 on Arduino
- implement AHRS attitude estimation with Madgwick or Mahony filter
- calibrate and self-test a 9DoF IMU
- run sensor fusion on Teensy 3.1 or STM32 Nucleo
- build orientation tracking for wearables or drones

## When to choose
- you use an MPU-9250 with Arduino, Teensy, or STM32 and want proven fusion sketches
- you need well-documented calibration and quaternion filter code for 9DoF sensing

## When to avoid
- you need a maintained library with a license for commercial use (no license is provided)
- you use a different IMU chip
- you need a modern build system rather than Arduino IDE sketches

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: maintenance
- function: embedded, simulation, monitoring
- domain: embedded-systems, hardware, robotics
- platform: embedded, iot, cpp
- tags: mpu9250, sensor-fusion, ahrs, madgwick-filter, mahony-filter, arduino, teensy, imu, 9dof, magnetometer, accelerometer, gyroscope
