Sensors Express Readers' Choice for 3DM-GX1
Source: Sensors Express

The 3DM-GX1® from MicroStrain, Inc., Williston, VT, combines the outputs from 3 angular rate gyros with those from 3 orthogonal DC accelerometers and 3 orthogonal magnetometers to provide stabilized pitch, roll, and yaw measurements under dynamic and static conditions. An embedded microprocessor contains a programmable complimentary filtering algorithm to provide these stabilized measurements. The unit provides orientation in matrix, quaternion, and Euler angle formats and its digital serial output can also provide temperature-compensated calibrated data from all sensors at up to 350 Hz. Output modes and software filters are user programmable. Nodes can be deployed in networks using the build-in RS-485 protocol.
