 # PyBMA400
 
+A Python library for the Bosch BMA400 accelerometer, providing easy access to accelerometer data and configuration.
+
+## Installation
+
+```bash
+pip install pybma400
+```
+
+## Features
+
+- Read acceleration data
+- Read temperature data in Celsius
+- Configure power modes, sampling rates, and ranges
+- Low-level register access for advanced users
+- Simple orientation detection functionality
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Python 3.6 or later
+- Raspberry Pi or other Linux system with I2C enabled
+- SMBus library (automatically installed as a dependency)
+
+## Usage Example
+
+```python
+from pybma400 import BMA400
+
+# Initialize the sensor
+sensor = BMA400()  # Default I2C bus=1, address=0x14
+
+# Read acceleration data
+x, y, z = sensor.acceleration
+print(f"Acceleration: X={x:.2f}, Y={y:.2f}, Z={z:.2f} m/s²")
+
+# Read temperature
+temp = sensor.temperature
+print(f"Temperature: {temp:.1f}°C")
+
+# Configure the sensor
+sensor.power_mode = BMA400.NORMAL_MODE
+sensor.output_data_rate = BMA400.ACCEL_100HZ
+sensor.acc_range = BMA400.ACC_RANGE_4  # ±4g range
+```
