Serially communication between IMU(x-io Technologies) and MATLAB

Hello, I am trying to access the accelerometer and magnetometer values from X-IMU through Bluetooth into MATLAB for further processing(without using Arduino). Can anyone help me how I can achieve this?

Hi Ranjith,

Looks like the X-IMU is pumping the data from the sensors out on a bluetooth. In MATLAB you could first check if the bluetooth device that is on the XIMU is on the supported hardware list from MathWorks and then refer to http://www.mathworks.in/help/instrument/bluetooth-communication.html

Which documents the utilities available for the same.

Hope this helps,

But how can we know what represents data received from fread function ? because IMU consists of 3 axis accelerometer and 3 axis gyroscope and 3 axis magnetometer and thermometer and a clock ! when I used "fread" I have got a column vector of data.

thanks in advance
