New sensor - hans-martijn - 2023-04-16

This morning I stumbled upon a new sensor device from Arduino. Since there seems to be a little trouble with getting good devices, and these are supposed to be industrial quality, would this be an option? They are more expensive, but maybe worth it?

pypilot would not make use of the features, only a driver written to pull raw accelerometer, gyro and compass sensor data. If this were done, it would be easy to compare the sensors and determine how good they are.

Would not surprise me if they are not any better perhaps worse than other sensors, but to really know the best way is to try them out and use pypilot_scope to compare noise levels and some other tests too.
