Change "quaternion" to "linear acceleration" and update the value casts to the appropriate type listed in the 3rd data. Relevant APi documentation linked below.
That link says that I need to use "CartesianFloat". But in your SensorFusion.java, there is no "CartesianFloat". There is the this comment above interface CorrectedCartesianFloat {...}: /** * Variant of the {@link com.mbientlab.metawear.data.CartesianFloat CartesianFloat} type that includes * the calibration accuracy of the data * @author Eric Tsai */
But when I use msg.getData(SensorFusion.CorrectedCartesianFloat.class) I get the following error repeatedly while running the app:
E/MetaWear: Background task reported an error

OK, so I changed Log.i("example", msg.getData(SensorFusion.Quaternion.class).toString()); to Log.i("SensorFusion data:", msg.getData(CartesianFloat.class).toString()); and I don't get that error anymore. However, now I'm facing another problem. I have an app where I press a single button and write the data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, magnetometer and sensor fusion to files saved on my mobile device. I first implemented the accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer and my app was saving the data alright. But, now that I've implemented the SensorFusion, as described above, the total amount of magnetometer data saved ends up being substantially lower than accelerometer and gyroscope. For instance, when the file size of accelerometer and gyroscope is around 100 kb, magnetometer file is around 20 kb. When I comment out the SensorFusion code, the file sizes are comparable. Why is this happening and how can I fix this?
The other problem I'm facing with SensorFusion is that the bluetooth drops connection after just a few seconds. Below is the error I get. Again, this does not happen when I comment out the sensorfusion implementation code.
You can't stream that much data at once; either stream acc + gyro + mag data or stream one sensor fusion output. Furthermore, you'll also want to configure the ble connection to handle high frequency streaming and use the high frequency data signals for acc, gyro, and mag.
This section explains what you need to do for APi v3 but you can implement the same setup with API v2.
OK, I removed sensor fusion and am only saving the 9 axis acc, gyro and mag data. The bluetooth connection got better but it still disconnects after about 40 minutes, and does not reconnect on its own (keeps showing the "reconnecting.." window). I need to collect this data continuously for 8 hours.
That code you pointed to for improving the bluetooth connection is not working for version 2.7.0. I searched and found the following for acc and gyro:
I'm using Samsung galaxy tab 2 with Android version 6.0.1.
When I run acc+gyro+mag all together, as in the code below, the data is not saved and displayed in real time. There is a time lag. But when I comment out any two and run only one of them, then the data is streamed real time. Why is that and how can I fix it? I will do the bluetooth test again and send you the log in another message.
I'm unable to post my code here due to the character limit. Is there any other way I could send you my code?
You still need to reduce the max connection interval as described in the documentation I linked. Furthermore, you can't stream multiple sensors at 200Hz; reduce those streams to 100Hz and then you can add in the magnetometer.
