Integrated multiple sensors, IMU helps drones fly stably

 

Sensors are the core components of drone flight control systems, responsible for collecting data about the drone and its surroundings, such as the drone’s position, speed, attitude, and other information.

Common sensors include gyroscopes, accelerometers, magnetometers (compasses), barometers (altimeters), and GPS modules. Most IMUs only integrate gyroscopes and accelerometers.

We currently have an IMU ER-MIMU-16 that integrates sensors such as gyroscopes, accelerometers, magnetometers, and barometers, making it ideal for drones.

**Integration of multiple high-performance sensors**

Gyroscope: dynamic measurement range ±450º/s, bias instability 0.3º/h, angular velocity random walk 0.15º/√h;

Accelerometer: dynamic measurement range ±30g, bias instability 10ug, bias repeatability 100ug;

The angular velocity and acceleration data provided by the gyroscope and accelerometer can be used to obtain information such as the attitude, speed, and displacement of the drone through system calculation.

Magnetometer: dynamic measurement range ±2.5Gauss, measures the data of the magnetic field to be borne, and provides the magnetic north direction.

Barometer: pressure range 450~1100mbar, by measuring the atmospheric pressure, the data provided can assist the flight control system in navigating the drone to the required height.

The data provided by the IMU can help the flight control system monitor the attitude changes of the drone in real time and achieve stability control.

**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 types of drones.

**SPI communication interface**

This type of communication method has a high data transmission rate and can perform high-speed data communication. It can also send and receive data at the same time, doubling the efficiency;

The core component of the flight control system, Let the drone explore unlimited possibilities

 

Sensors are the core components of drone flight control systems, which can help drones achieve multiple functions such as attitude control, navigation, and flight control. The data provided by the IMU is used to generate control instructions and adjust the flight attitude of the drone to maintain stable flight.

ERICCO's IMU ER-MIMU-07 is a nine-axis IMU with a three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis accelerometer, and a three-axis magnetometer.

Gyroscopes and accelerometers provide angular velocity and acceleration data, which can be used to calculate information such as the attitude, speed, and displacement of the drone.

The magnetometer can provide data on the magnetic field to which the drone is subjected and provide the direction of magnetic north.

So what are the advantages of this IMU?

**High-precision sensor**

The built-in gyroscope has a measurement range of 400º/s, bias instability (1σ 25℃) <0.3 º/h, and angular velocity random walk <0.125°/√h. The accelerometer has a measurement range of 30g, bias stability (10s 1σ) <50ug, and bias repeatability of 100ug.

The measured data supports the flight control system to detect the attitude changes of the drone in real time, so as to quickly respond to unreasonable body attitude changes. The data provided by the IMU, combined with other sensor data, helps determine the position and direction of the drone.

**Small and easy to install**

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

**Better performance, lower price**

This IMU simplifies and reduces design costs while maintaining high performance. Its performance is better than STIM300, but the price is lower, which helps reduce the cost of drones.
