Overview
The MPU-6050™ parts are the world’s first MotionTracking devices designed for the low power, low cost, and high-performance. The MPU-6050 devices combine a 3-axis gyroscope and a 3-axis accelerometer on the same silicon die, together with an onboard Digital Motion Processor™ (DMP™), which processes complex 6-axis MotionFusion algorithms. The device can access external magnetometers or other sensors through an auxiliary master I²C bus, allowing the devices to gather a full set of sensor data without intervention from the system processor.
For precision tracking of both fast and slow motions, the parts feature a user-programmable gyro full-scale range of ±250, ±500, ±1000, and ±2000 °/sec (dps), and a user-programmable accelerometer full-scale range of ±2g, ±4g, ±8g, and ±16g. Additional features include an embedded temperature sensor and an on-chip oscillator with ±1% variation over the operating temperature range.

User Guide
It is the best choice to develop embedded drivers with embedded rust. Because the driver can be used with MCU like ESP32, also used with ARM64 Linux Application, for example raspberry pi directly.
You can download the mpu-6050 rust driver with git, also add your rust project with cargo – cargo add mpu6050.
The examples as below use the first one.
