This is the second prototype. __TOC__ =Hardware=Built with simple, ready to order parts from common suppliers. Purchase 1 each of the following:*Bluefruit EZ-Link - bluetooth modem w/ baud rate detection - http://www.adafruit.com/product/1588*Arduino Pro Mini 3.3V - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11114*Power switch - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/102*GY-86 - 10 DOF flight control module with MPU6050 + HMC5883L + MS5611 - http://www.amazon.com/Arrela-Control-Ms5611-Hmc5883l-Mpu6050/dp/B00KKJYMO6/*LiPo Battery - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/731*LiPo Charger - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10217 (note you need to cut off the JST connector to fit it in the enclosure)*Small quantity of stranded ribbon cable. One of the following, needed to program the arduino. (One use only! Borrow from a friend?)*FTDI Basic 3.3V - https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9873*FTDI Cable 3.3V - http://www.adafruit.com/product/70 You can also choose to leave the LiPo charger out of the enclosure for small space savings.
=Software=
==Processing==
This is the demo app in Processing included with FreeIMU v0.4.
#With the headtraker powered on, pair your computer with the bluefruit device.
#Change the serial port screen to match your bluefruit device, for example ''/dev/tty.AdafruitEZ-Link3e2f-SPP'' on my system.
#Run the example. Press 'h' to store the home position.

==Python==
Simple python program to read from the IMU headtracker and record to file. Additionally opens second serial device and feeds values to pan-tilt camera in matching orientation.
