Indispensable components for DIY drones

 


The cost-effective choice of drone sensors: revealing the secrets of high-performance nine-axis IMU

Sensors are an important part of drones and are the key to drone navigation, stable control and precise flight.

Gyroscopes and accelerometers provide carrier angular velocity and acceleration, which can be used to calculate attitude, speed, displacement and other information. Magnetometers can provide magnetic north direction.

Our IMU ER-MIMU-07 is a nine-axis IMU that integrates these three high-performance sensors. It is small in size and light in weight while ensuring performance, making it very suitable for drones.

**Lower price, higher performance**

Simplify and reduce design costs while maintaining high performance. Lower price than STIM300, but higher performance.

**Attitude control**

Gyroscope measurement range is 400º/s, bias instability is 0.3 º/h. Accelerometer bias stability is 50ug, bias repeatability is 100ug.

It can detect changes in the attitude of the drone in real time, quickly respond to any unreasonable attitude changes, and stabilize the drone.

**Navigation**

Combined with other sensor data, it can help determine the position and direction of the drone for navigation.

The volume is only 38.6x 44.8 x25.5mm, the weight is ≤70g, and the compact and small design can be easily installed on the fuselage of the drone.

**Widely applied**

In addition to drones, it can also be applied to other unmanned systems, such as autonomous driving of unmanned vehicles, unmanned ships USV and underwater vehicles UAV.

An IMU designed specifically for drones, with multiple sensors integrated

 



Sensors are the core components of drone flight control systems, which can help drones achieve multiple functions such as attitude control, navigation, flight control, etc.

A basic drone needs to have characteristics such as stability, accuracy, low power consumption, and environmental perception. We currently have an IMU ER-MIMU-16 that perfectly meets these requirements.

**Multiple high-performance sensor integration**

Most IMUs only have built-in gyroscopes and accelerometers. Our IMU integrates sensors such as gyroscopes, accelerometers, magnetometers, and barometers (altimeters), which are very suitable for drones.

Gyroscope: dynamic measurement range: ±450º/s, bias instability :0.3º/h;

Accelerometer: dynamic measurement range: ±30g, bias instability: 10ug;

Gyroscopes and accelerometers provide the angular velocity and acceleration of the drone. These data can be calculated to obtain information such as the drone's attitude, speed, and displacement.

Magnetometer: dynamic measurement range ±2.5Gauss, can measure the strength and direction of the magnetic field, and provide the magnetic north direction.

Barometer: pressure range 450~1100mbar, by measuring atmospheric pressure, the data provided can assist the drone in navigation, rise to the required height, and accurately estimate the ascent and descent speeds.

**Lightweight design, easy to install**

This IMU has a volume of 47×44×14mm, a thickness of only 14mm, and a weight of 50g. It can be easily installed in various drones.

The integrated navigation: escorting safe flight of drones

 The integrated navigation: escorting safe flight of drones



GNSS systems (such as GPS, GLONASS, BDS, etc.) provide positioning services with global coverage, but the signals may be blocked or interfered with. They are usually combined with inertial navigation systems to form the integrated navigation system, which can be used in various unmanned systems.

At present, integrated navigation has been widely used in UAVs. It can perform positioning and orientation, and provide attitude, heading and altitude information to the flight control system of the UAV.

The flight control system combines other sensor information to achieve automatic flight, and can also use the combined attitude information to achieve fuselage attitude stability.

We have an integrated navigation system ER-GNSS/MINS-05, which is the most cost-effective one. It has high reliability and is reasonably priced.

Why is this north Seeker your best choice in the drilling field?

 


During downhole operations, the main problems that the north seeking system needs to solve include impact vibration, system volume, azimuth accuracy, and downhole temperature. Considering the measurement requirements at a certain depth, the north seeker needs to be equipped with an efficient thermos bottle. The fiber optic north seeker is expensive, and its volume increases with the increase in accuracy, which greatly limits the drilling and logging equipment. In general, the north seeker needs to be installed on the guide rail of the drilling rig or on a stable plane during drilling. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure that the axis of the north seeker is consistent with the axis of the drilling rig.

But with ERICCO's MEMS North Seeker (ER-MNS-09), these problems can be easily solved. Why should we choose it?

1. New appearance, high precision: The new cylindrical north seeker tailored for this field has a diameter of only 30mm, a small size, and is easy to install in a thermos bottle, meeting the application requirements of ordinary standard cased wells, drill pipes and small well diameters.

2. Different installation positions: The special shape enables it to be placed in the probe of the drilling rig, which is more accurate than other north seekers. It can provide strong support for users to solve information such as azimuth and attitude angle. It helps drilling engineers to accurately control the trajectory of the drill bit and ensure that the drilling operation is carried out in the predetermined direction.

3. Different accuracy for you to choose: There are three models in this series (ER-MNS-09A, ER-MNS-09B, ER-MNS-09C) with north seeking accuracy of 1°secψ(1σ), 0.5°secψ(1σ), and 0.25°secψ(1σ) respectively, which can be selected according to different needs.

4. Strong and durable, resistant to high impact and vibration.

5. Adopting MEMS technology, the cost is lower, but the high performance is not compromised.

Choose a suitable IMU to make your drone flight more stable and safe

 


       As one of the core components of drones, IMU plays an irreplaceable role. Its high precision, fast response and freedom from external interference enable drones to maintain stable and precise flight and accurate navigation and positioning in complex environments, and can also perform fault diagnosis for drones. ERICCO's MEMS IMU can achieve high performance while being small in size and light in weight, making it very suitable for drones.

We have a tactical-grade IMU ER-MIMU-M02, which is low-cost and has an advantage in price. It is a 10-axis IMU with an added three-axis magnetometer and barometer (altimeter). It is only 47×44×14mm in size and weighs 50g. Compared with other IMUs, it is more suitable for drones.

The built-in accelerometer of the IMU cannot be used to detect absolute heading (yaw). The magnetometer in this IMU measures the magnetic field strength in three dimensions, which can help determine the heading of the object as well as roll and pitch, and correct the integrated error of the yaw gyroscope in the sensor fusion algorithm.

The barometer measures the atmospheric pressure and calculates the altitude of the drone, which is crucial for the safe flight of the drone!

The dynamic measurement range of the built-in gyroscope is ±450º/s, the bias instability is 2 º/h, and the angular random walk is 0.08º/√h. The dynamic measurement range of the accelerometer is 16g, the bias stability is 0.1mg (Allen variance), and the angular random walk is 0.02m/s√h.

Considering the flight time requirements of drones, this IMU has a power of only 1.5W, which can extend the flight time of drones.

This IMU has a short production cycle and can be mass-produced, which is particularly suitable for users with large demands and limited budgets.
