MotionApps AVR question

SmartMotion® MEMS Motion Sensors

I am trying to port MPU-6050 code from the AVR to a MSP430. Can anyone help me navigate the maze of directories and files in the so-called SDK to what they describe in the User Guide as:

Embedded MotionApps Platform + API
MLDL
Ustore Manager

These are supposed to be the platform independent portions of e-MAP. I have never used an AVR and trying to reverse engineer their compile structure is taking a lot longer than I expected.

Is there any expected date on a real SDK that is platform independent? It is certainly a stretch to call an example use-case for a specific controller a software development kit. Nice idea on this product but the software side is a nightmare.

We are targeting a new SW release that will be platform independent. This should be released by September.

Any news on the release date for the platform independent SW release? Will this release include magnetometer fusion within the DMP?

We are nearing a release date this month. This particular release will not include 9-axis sensor fusion.

Is there a release planned (in the coming months) that will include 9-axis sensor fusion?

We do have one 9 DOF software release available in the MotionFit SDK, a second rev of this SW is in the works.

Aside from that there are no other plans as of now to release a platform independent 9 DOF software package. As part of the upcoming 6 DOF platform independent release there will be compass integration and calibration instructions.

Hi sectionsbest,

is there a scheduled release date for the "6 DOF platform independent release"? In some post you mention the week starting Sep. 24 (which is this week) - is this still on schedule?

Thank you for any update (even a delay news would help in our planing!).
