Arduino Simulator-Adafruit MPU6050(Gyro Accelorometer)-2022

VIrtual Arduino simulator Examples - MPU6050 Gyro and Accelerometer Sensor

Introduction

Arduino Simulator is one of the useful tools to learn Arduino programming without real hardware. There might be cases where the hardware might not be available or there might not be sufficient comfort in space to rig up the hardware. Arduino simulators come in very handily to create projects without real hardware. They also help you in presenting your ideas, sharing projects with others and working together on projects like never before.

Things used in this project

• Arduino UNO
• MPU6050 Gyro and accelerometer sensor
