OVERVIEW

The AIMMS Inertial Module is a complete six degree-of-freedom inertial measurement unit consisting of three rate gyros and three accelerometers. Angular rates and accelerations are output across a CAN bus at 40Hz to track changes in orientation and velocity.

Benefits

• "Smart" module with integrated analog and digital electronics for high-accuracy, fully compensated output
• Low power consumption
• Digital interface for ease of integration
• Two communication options are available:
• Controller Area Network (CAN2.0A)
• RS-232
• User programmable digital filter frequencies and output rates up to 100Hz

Applications

• Vehicle dynamics testing
• Land vehicle control
• Vibration monitoring
• General instrumentation
• Precision farming
• Ship motion analysis
• Aircraft g-load and vibration monitoring
• Aircraft attitude, velocity and position tracking
