The basic connections are easy in theory, especially if you get a ready-to-use, breakout-board version (e.g. Adafruit modules) of each, for perhaps double or triple the price. Then it's just a matter of wiring each sensor to data lines of the controller chip, and giving everything the power it requires.

Programming libraries contain the basic functions necessary to access to sensors' readings with simple lines of code.

But the devil is in the details - to go from that to an actual practical, working model and physical build is quite a lot of work. Expect months, in hobbyist terms.
