Re: BNO055 9DOF Java Class for FRC roboRio
First off, I wanted to say thanks for posting the I2C code for communicating with the BNO055 sensor. It has made our lives much easier.

We have been using the OPERATION_MODE_NDOF and VECTOR_EULER options when constructing our instance as we are primarily interested in using the sensor's gyro.

We have seen good results most of the time, however it seems like we sometimes observe communication drop outs where we stop getting readings when connected to the roboRIO (or pauses in communications). At the moment we are chalking it up to our temporary breadboard/jumper cable connection.

I would be curious to hear how your experience has been when using the sensor to date and whether you plan to stick with it for this season.
