Specification
Technical Specifications:
BWT61CL’s scientific name is the AHRS IMU sensor. A sensor measures 3-axis angle, angular velocity, acceleration. Its strength lies in the algorithm which can calculate the three-axis angle accurately. The robust housing and the small outline makes it perfectly suitable for industrial retrofit application such as motion capturing, engineering machine monitoring, etc.
Persued for best data accuracy and stability: WTMOTION patented zero-bias automatic detection calibration algorithm and R&D dynamic fusion algorithm outperforms traditional accelerometer sensor.

Reviews

When
combined with the "Remote Level" Android app, I have found the
WitMotion BWT61CL Bluetooth MPU6050 Gyro+Accelerometer a very useful
& cost-effective way to level our T@B camper. It's unfortunate that
it is currently not available - maybe a result of China tarriffs &
will be back hopefully? I wish the bluetooth connection was a bit more
reliable at greater distances such as from the driver's seat of tow
vehicle (which sometimes loses connection), but otherwise very helpful
for adjusting tongue jack & left/right leveling. After trial &
error, I found that choosing the app orientation setting "Left Edge",
with the device oriented with label facing upwards & label bottom
forward, this produces the expected results with above app after saving
settings with the device mounted on leveled trailer. See photos showing
device mounted under a cabinet, where front of trailer is at
right/through window. This orientation uses the X-axis for left/right
leveling and Y-axis for front/back. I used a simple USB adapter plugged
into a 120V AC outlet.
Much cheaper than another popular device of
this type costing around $130. I have no incentive for giving this
review other than being a satisfied cusutomer.

For $25 this is a nice device, it has a very decent battery life and the BT connection seems very reliable once it is done. I am not sure why but some times it takes several attempts to connect to my tablet. One of the reasons I decided to get this device was because of the App offering, so I was really disappointed when I saw some of the app menus in Chinese.

I
use this device with my own Android app. It works exactly as
described, and meets all my expectations and requirements. I programmed
my app to connect to the BWT601CL's Bluetooth interface exactly as
described by the Google Android Bluetooth development guide, with the
additional information provided by the WitMotion documentation for the
detailed data format protocol. Like most programming efforts, this was
not totally headache-free but the issues were due to my own Bluetooth
inexperience and bugs, not due to WitMotion.
The device can also
be accessed and tested with the "Mini IMU" app provided by download from
WitMotion, which shows angles, angular velocity, and acceleration and
also allows for admin and calibration. I did not try to use a hardwired
PC interface as all functionality is provided over wireless Bluetooth.
The documentation states that admin functions are not available over
the PC serial interface. This makes sense to me, since it's a wireless
Bluetooth device, and there are other different available devices
intended for hardwired applications, and even a USB-bluetooth interface
for PCs.

This product can be very confusing to set up as their online template did not work for me. However, their customer service team is AWESOME and genuinely cares about their customers. We were able to eventually get my accelerometer up and running. It is fantastic and has a great sampling rate. Highly recommended!
