TaskScheduler VS Adafruit_Sensor

When you get a little more advanced it's not hard to extend the BWD code to hsndle any number of "time when something should happen". Or you can use something like the TaskScheduler library.

Or just use TaskScheduler and never have to worry about this again. https://github.com/arkhipenko/TaskScheduler

For reference, I'm a big fan of this scheduler in particular, due to it's simplicity, OO support and a neat extra of sleeping each unused millisecond (low power for free).

One of my favourite low power techniques involves using a scheduller for your loop code, and sleep for 1 ms at a time when there are no tasks to run. As seen here.

Have you looked at the task scheduler library? https://github.com/arkhipenko/TaskScheduler

There are a few libraries. A popular, easy to use library is the Adafruit Unified Sensor Library collection that exposes an interface for BNO055 and other similar hardware. You can read it as a quaternion format (better for math geeks who like stable orientation) or as a rotation on X/Y/Z axes in either degrees or radians for people who aren't bothered by issues like gimbal lock when you hit a pure up or pure down orientation.
