BNO055 Min & Max Values in Python












0














I'm working on a Python/RPi project using the BNO055 and Adafruit library. I am trying to read the datasheet for the BNO055 to figure out the minimum and maximum values the Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Gravity sensors will gather.



How do I discern these values other than by running a script and swinging the sensor around to then go back and compute the values? It'd be easy if I could just use the following:



import board, busio, adafruit_bno055
i2c = busio.I2C(board.SCL, board.SDA)
sensor = adafruit_bno055.BNO055(i2c)
print(min(sensor.accelerometer))
print(max(sensor.accelerometer))


But that does not work in the way I'd want it to. Any suggestions on how to get min/max values this sensor can read?

Here's a link to the datasheet.
