IMU930-2A MEMS inertial measurement unit (IMU)

The Hybrid FOG-based Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) seamlessly merges multiple sensor technologies to gauge the movement, attitude, and orientation of objects with precision. This state-of-the-art IMU harnesses a suite of sensors, including a 3-axis gyroscope and an accelerometer, to capture angular velocity and acceleration data. For angular velocity measurements on the z-axis, the unit employs a high-fidelity i-FOG (interferometric Fiber Optic Gyroscope). Meanwhile, MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems) gyroscope technology covers the x and y axes. This arrangement ensures comprehensive and precise data collection across all three axes. Besides the gyroscope, the IMU is equipped with an accelerometer that measures linear acceleration. By fusing the information from both the gyroscope and accelerometer, the system computes attitude angles, encompassing roll, pitch, and azimuth. Widely adopted in several sectors, this hybrid IMU is especially pivotal for autonomous driving. It stands as a linchpin in the precise tracking and interpretation of vehicular movement, attitude, and orientation. The precision of the IMU is instrumental in bolstering the safety and effectiveness of self-driving vehicles.
