Typical Applications
IMU488M Inertial Measurement Unit is a high performance 10 DoF MEMS-based inertial sensors, which has been widely used in the following fields:
- Unmanned Aircraft
- Industrial Robotics
- Unmanned Surface Vessel
- Platform Stabilization
IMU488M Inertial Measurement Unit widely used in unmanned aircraft
Inertial Measurement Unit (also name as IMU), is an electronic device that measures and reports acceleration, orientation, angular rates, and other gravitational forces. It is composed of 3 accelerometers, 3 gyroscopes, and other sensors also can be optional.
UAV is unmanned aerial vehicle, commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. The flight of UAVs may operate with various degrees of autonomy: either under remote control by a human operator or autonomously by onboard computers.
IMU488M UAV IMU is a tactical-grade MEMS-based IMU (inertial measurement unit), it is ideal for a range of critical UAV applications, including flight control, antenna stabilization, and navigation, and is also an essential component for inertial navigation systems (INS).
IMU488M UAV IMU provides reliable performance with good accuracy in dynamic environment, it has been widely used in unmanned aircraft by the Chinese leading companies, now more than tens of thousands IMU488M IMU modules are used in the unamend aircraft.
IMU488M Inertial Measurement Unit widely used in Autonomous Vehicles
The typical IMU for autonomous vehicles use includes a three-axis accelerometer and three-axis rate sensor. The inertial measurement unit (IMU) is a device that directly measures a vehicle's three linear acceleration components and three rotational rate components (and thus its six degrees of freedom). An IMU is unique among the sensors typically found in an unmanned vehicle because an IMU needs no connection to or knowledge of the external world. This environment independence makes the IMU a core technology for both safety and sensor-fusion.
An accurate IMU can also determine and track attitude precisely. When driving, the direction or heading of the unmanned vehicle is as crucial as its position. Driving in a slightly wrong direction even briefly may put the unmanned vehicle in the wrong lane. Dynamic control of the unmanned vehicle requires sensors with dynamic response. An IMU does a nice job of tracking dynamic attitude and position changes accurately. Its fully environment-independent nature lets an IMU track position even in tricky scenarios such as slipping and skidding where tires lose traction.
IMU488M IMU modules provide reliable performance with good accuracy in dynamic environment, it has been widely used in autonomous vehicles by the Chinese leading companies, now more than hundreds of thousands IMU688M IMU modules are used in the autonomous vehicles.
