CH Robotics UM6
The UM6 Ultra-Miniature Orientation Sensor combines sensor measurements from rate gyros, accelerometers, and magnetic sensors to measure orientation at 500 Hz. The UM6 also has the capability to interface with external GPS modules to provide position, velocity, course, and speed information. The UM6 is configured by default to automatically transmit data over the UART.FEATURES
● Supports GPS connectivity and data parsing● GPS position can be reported in meters from user-customizable home position
● Automatic gyro bias calibration
● Cross-axis misalignment correction1
● Rate gyro temperature compensation2
● TTL UART or SPI bus communication
● Adjustable serial output rates (20 Hz - 300 Hz) and baud rate (up to 115200 baud)
● Onboard 3.3V regulator simplifies integration
● Open-source firmware with free development tools
● Open-source PC software for data visualization and AHRS configuration Common
APPLICATIONS
● Robotics● Platform Stabilization
● Motion Tracking
● Enhanced GPS Navigation
● General Motion Sensing
● Image Stabilization
● Human Limb Tracking 1 Soft and hard iron calibration matrices and cross-axis alignment matrices must be determined and set by the end user. The UM6 configuration software includes routines for computing soft and hard iron calibration data. 2 Temperature calibration terms are not computed at the factory unless specifically requested. -2- UM6 Ultra-Miniature Orientation Sensor Datasheet Document rev.
