Tinkerforge IMU Bricklet 3.0

Tinkerforge IMU Bricklet 3.0 houses a 3-axis accelerometer, magnetometer (compass), and gyroscope and works as an inertial measurement unit. This device can measure 9 degrees of freedom and computes quaternions, linear acceleration, gravity vector as well as independent heading, roll, and pitch angles. All this makes the IMU Bricklet 3.0 a complete attitude and heading reference system. The IMU Bricklet 3.0 provides an API that supports many programming languages. This allows access to the calculated data and also the acceleration, magnetic field, and angular velocity of the three axes.

Features

  • Full-fledged IMU/AHRS with 9 degrees of freedom (3-axis each: accelerometer, compass, and gyroscope)
    • BNO055 sensor
  • Factory calibrated, automatic continuous self-calibration during operation
  • 95mW (19mA at 5V) current consumption
  • 16bit quaternion resolution
  • No accumulating errors, no gimbal lock
  • Calculates quaternions, linear acceleration, gravity vector as well as independent heading, roll, and pitch angles
  • Dimensions:
    • 25mm x 25mm x 5mm (0.98″ x 0.98″ x 0.19″)
