Introduction
The MicroStrain 3DM-GX5-AR is the smallest and lightest industrial VRU available. It features a triaxial accelerometer, gyroscope, and temperature sensors to achieve the optimum combination of measurement qualities.

The 3DM-GX5-AR is ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including platform stabilization antenna pointing and usage monitoring.
Features & Benefits

Best in Class Performance

  • Fully calibrated, temperature-compensated, and mathematically-aligned to an orthogonal coordinate system for highly accurate outputs
  • Bias tracking, error estimation, threshold flags, and adaptive noise modeling allow for fine tuning to conditions in each application
  • High-performance, low-drift gyros with noise density of 0.005°/sec/√Hz and VRE of 0.001°/s/g2RMS
  • Accelerometer noise as low as 25 ug/√Hz

Ease of Use

  • User-defined sensor-to-vehicle frame transformation
  • Common protocol between 3DM-GX3, GX4, RQ1, GQ4, GX5, and CV5
  • Robust, forward compatible MIP packet protocol

Cost Effective

  • Out-of-the box solution reduces development time
  • Volume discounts
