Read IMU data over BLE

Open pavlosharhan2 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

First ensure you are using a camera that is currently supported by Open GoPro. Any other tickets will be rejected.

It would be great to be able to query the IMU data through some characteristic dedicated for that. The use case is to correctly position the camera in space, and just track any movements even when the camera is not recording. It will be handy in understanding which direction the camera is looking at, which can have many applications for 3rd party software. In my case I want to see the pan and tilt for lining up the cameras using servos in cricket game,

Proposed solution: 1 more characteristic in addition to existing ones that I can subscribe to and receive notifications. The IMU data can be pacetized as 6 2-byte values ( 3 for acc and 3 for gyro)

I know it's possible to get gpmf data from video via http api, but it doesn't allow to get the data in real time / when the camera is not recording

Thanks
