High-precision 6-axis MEMS inertial measurement unit

High-precision tactical-grade 6-component inertial measurement unit

ASC’s new IMU 8.X.Y inertial measurement unit is the ideal solution for high-precision positioning measurement. It integrates multiple high-precision inertial sensors, including a triaxial capacitive accelerometer and a triaxial gyroscope based on MEMS technology.

The excellent bias stability (0.12°/hr) and low measurement noise of the sensing elements (7 µg/√Hz over a ± 2g measurement range, angular random walk of 0.017 °/√Hz) enable the IMU8 to detect movements in all 6 directions with unique precision and measurement repeatability, across acceleration ranges from ± 2g to ± 30g and rotation ranges from 100 to 200°/s.

Installation

The IMU8 requires a supply voltage of 8 to 30 VDC. Its IP65-rated housing is made of anodized aluminum for reduced size (59 x 59 x 49 mm) and weight (260 g). Connectivity includes a 15-pin Comtronic connector and a detachable 2.5 m cable.

Applications

With its performance, compact size, low power consumption, and reasonable cost, the IMU8 inertial measurement unit is an ideal solution for railway monitoring, aviation, robotics, and intelligent navigation systems used in aeronautics (drones), marine, railway, and autonomous vehicles.
