@page dwx_imu_plugin_sample IMU Plugin Sample
@tableofcontents

@note SW Release Applicability: This sample is available in both **NVIDIA DriveWorks** and **NVIDIA DRIVE Software** releases.

@section dwx_imu_plugin_sample_description Description

The IMU Plugin sample implements a sensor driver for a CAN-based IMU
using the comprehensive sensor plugin framework. This uses a DriveWorks
@ref canbus_mainsection sensor to provide raw data.

It also provides sources for a refcounted-`BufferPool` data structure
that may be used as reference for other implementations.

@section dwx_imu_plugin_sample_run Running the sample

This sample compiles as a shared library (.so) that can be used with the
DriveWorks Sensor Abstraction Layer (SAL).

This plugin can be used in conjunction with the @ref dwx_imu_loc_sample to test
and verify functionality:

    ./sample_imu_logger --driver=imu.custom
                        --params=decoder-path=[path_to_decoder.so],
                                 can-proto=[can.virtual|can.socket],
                                 [file=<path_to_can_recording.bin>|device=<can_device>]
                        --timestamp-trace=[true|false]

For playing back IMU data recorded with a custom plugin, the following
command line can be used:

    ./sample_imu_logger --driver=imu.virtual
                        --params=file=[path_to_recording.bin],
                                 decoder-path=[path_to_decoder.so]

@note The precompiled decoder library is called `libsample_imu_plugin.so`.
