MUGIC® Datagram and Description
Accelerometer
AX AY AZ
1 2 3
Acceleration: measured by the on-board accelerometer, in the local device frame, in m/s^2
Euler Angles
EX EY EZ
4 5 6
Euler angles: computed by the on-board sensor from the quaternion, in (fixed) Earth-related frame, in degrees.
Gyrometer
GX GY GZ
7 8 9
Gyrometer: angular velocity in the local device frame, in degrees per second.
Magnetometer
MX MY MZ
10 11 12
Magnetometer: measures the components of the Earth magnetic field in the local device frame, in µT.
Quaternion
QW QX QY QZ
13 14 15 16
Quaternion: provides an alternate measurement (different from Euler angles) of the rotation between the local frame and the Earth-related frame.
Battery
18
Battery level in voltage (between 3.7 volts - approx. 4.2 volts)
Sensor status
(Accelerometer, Gyrometer, m (continues)
19 20 21 22
Calibration status (0=N/A, 1=weak, 2=good, 3=excellent). In general, data is not reliable and should not be used when the corresponding status is 0.
Note: It is possible to calibrate the device by a sequence of movements / positions systematically exploring every orientation, until every status is at least 1, preferably 2 or 3.
Seconds
23
Seconds elapsed since the last restart of the MUGIC® device.¹
SeqNum
24
Sequence number of data message: first message has sequence number 0, and subsequent messages increment this sequence number by 1.
¹ With a reasonably steady rate, should be spaced every 25ms per consecutive messages, but can vary depending on various interactions and activity in the device (e.g. network activity). Can be regulated through the loop_delay parameter (see next section).
