Wow, using PSOC in a project awesome.

A magnetometer is only necessary in the first stage of IMU navigation, finding your heading. A gps unit is used to find your location. Then by monitoring your change in heading (via gyroscope) and your change in velocity(via accelerometer) you can determine your change in location.
This module would be useful only in an application where orgin and heading aren’t necessary, unless you add them yourself. An application they would be useful in would be say a model rocket. Who cares where it starts, but we want to know how far and how high it traveled and how long it took to get there.
If you have more questions email me. -
how about just turn off the bluetooth radio. Take a reading from the magnetic sensors, store it to eeprom and then turn back on the radio and read the accerlerometers and gyro.

You most likely will need a floating point processor. I believe that is the key difference between the two processors.

Who cares about bits? Resolution is the important thing here.

Accelerometer, gyroscope and Magnetometer all on one chip? Soon it will be true!

Ever going to put up the schematics for this one?

Why doesn’t Sparkfun sell this “GSM GPRS 3-BAND” module?

Great job on the soldering work shop. It’s awesome you can raise money for a good cause by teaching people something your passionate about. Hope the maker fair comes to the Midwest soon. Thanks.

Looks like I found some “art work” for my bare apartment.
No public wish lists :(
