Documented Code
The code for the Arduino UNO is written in C++ and utilizes several libraries to manage the MPU6050 sensor and the Nrf24l01 communication module. The code is structured to initialize the sensor and communication module, read the sensor data, process the data to calculate angles, and send commands based on button inputs and sensor readings.
The code begins with including necessary libraries and defining constants and variables for the MPU6050 registers, angles, button states, and radio communication. The setup() function initializes serial communication, the radio module, and the MPU6050 sensor, and calibrates the sensor. The loop() function reads the sensor values, calculates angles, checks button states, and sends commands via the radio module based on the processed sensor data and button states.
The code also contains functions for reading and writing to the MPU6050 registers, as well as utility functions for setting and getting the last read angles.
Due to the length and complexity of the code, it is not included in its entirety in this document. However, the code is well-structured and contains comments explaining the functionality of each section, which aids in understanding the flow and purpose of the program.
