Research direction
Start by reproducing the i2cdetect checks on MaixCAM2 buses 0, 1, 6, 7, and 8, then inspect MaixPy's MaixCAM2 device support for an IMU access path. Confirm whether the onboard QMI8658 is exposed through MaixPy; done means a documented or working way to access the six-axis IMU for device_id="maixcam2".
