3DM®-CV5-15
Introduction
The MicroStrain 3DM®CV5-AR is the smallest and lightest industrial attitude reference available. It features a fully calibrated and temperature compensated triaxial accelerometer and gyroscope to achieve the optimum combination of measurement qualities under all dynamic conditions.
The 3DM-CV5-AR is designed to balance cost and performance, and is ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including platform stabilization, balancing robots, antenna pointing, and usage monitoring.
