LPMS-IG1 IMU Sensor

Description

The LPMS-IG1-RS232 is a a miniature inertial measurement unit (IMU) and attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) that has an RS232 and USB Interface. The unit performs accurate, high speed orientation and displacement measurements with three different MEMS sensors. The LPMS-IG1 is equipment with a powerful central processing unit that will fuse raw data from the dual gyroscopes, accelerometer and magnetometer to calculate results in real-time with low drift and high accuracy. All sensor parameters and data transmission options can be controlled by our IG1-Control software. For direct interfacing to Windows / Linux PC or embedded system we provide extensive library support.

Features

  • MEMS-Based 9-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU) with onboard sensor fusion.
  • Very low-noise gyroscope for low-drift measurements with a bias of 4°/hour
  • Dual gyroscope mode with additional high-range gyroscope for measurements up to 2,000°/s
  • Real-time, on device calculation of sensor orientation and linear acceleration
  • RS232 Communications.
  • USB Interface for easier configuration
  • IP67 rugged Aluminium housing
  • Versatile software and library support for data acquisition and sensor configuration.

Applications

  • Robotic Manipulator Forward Kinematics Control
  • Automotive Dead Reckoning
  • Object Orientation Tracking for VR/AR
  • Automatic Guided Vehicle (AGV) Navigation
  • Prototype Integration
