This example shows you how to easily log data to a SD card with Embedded Proto. The advantage of using protobuf for logging data is that protobuf makes it easy to add new fields with new code revisions. This while it remains backwards compatible. Allowing you to read back old logs with new software. This is especially handing when still …
