Description

The MPU6050 is a 6-axis Motion Tracking Sensor that integrates a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer into a single compact module. It is widely used in motion tracking, robotics, drones, gesture recognition, and stabilization systems.

The MPU6050 communicates using the I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit) protocol, making it easy to interface with Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, and STM32. It features high-precision motion sensing with programmable sensitivity for both acceleration and gyroscopic data. The built-in Digital Motion Processor (DMP) allows it to process motion calculations internally, reducing the burden on the micro controller.

This sensor is ideal for projects that require precise motion detection, balancing systems, and inertial navigation, such as self-balancing robots, drones, VR motion tracking, and IoT applications.
