IMU Board

SKU: DFR0046

The Arduino-compatible IMU, a project by Chris Anderson and Jordi Muñoz for UAV control/motion capture, is the ArduIMU 6DOF main board. Alone, it’s 4DOF (3-axis acceleration, 1-axis angular velocity); connect up to two daughter boards for extra angular velocity axes. It has a LISY300AL (±300°/s gyro) and ADXL335 (±3g accelerometer). No on-board regulators—use clean 3.3V power.
