Using MPU6050 through I2C bus

We have purchased an MPU6050 from here:
http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/s..._w_FT DI.html

Our hope is to use the digital gyro on board using I2C directly to the digital sidecar to aid in autonomous turning. To implement any code (we use Java), we will need to find or build native libraries and bridges to Java. So far here are the resources I have found:

Does anyone have experience working with this type of device that could offer insight to setting it up for use with an FRC robot using Java? Or just some tips even if you don't have experience?
