Introduction Inertial measurement units are one of the most common sensors in navigation. It contains an accelerometer and gyroscope, and sometimes a magnetometer and barometer. The accelerometer is responsible for the acceleration measurement, while the gyroscope is responsible for the angular velocity measurement. Each of these measurements is expressed along the three-axis coordinate system x,y,z. An inertial measurement unit is a device that measures three-axis attitude (or angular velocity) and acceleration. To increase reliability, it is also possible to equip each axis with more sensors. Generally, the IMU should be installed at the center of gravity of the object being measured.
IMUs are commonly used to control modern vehicles, including missiles, robots, submarines, aircraft (attitude and heading reference systems), including unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), etc., and spacecraft, including satellites and landers. Developments in recent years have allowed the production of IMU-enabled GPS devices. The IMU allows the GPS receiver to operate when the GPS signal is unavailable, such as in tunnels, inside buildings, or when there is electronic interference.
Operating principle An inertial measurement unit (IMU) works by detecting linear acceleration using one or more accelerometers and measuring angular velocity using one or more gyroscopes. Some also include magnetometers. Pitch, roll and yaw are commonly used as attitude reference systems.
Instructions The IMU is often integrated into an inertial navigation system, which uses raw IMU measurements to calculate the attitude of the drone. A simpler version of the INS, called an Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), uses an IMU to calculate the vehicle’s heading attitude relative to magnetic north. Data collected from the IMU sensors allows computers to track the aircraft’s position using a method called dead reckoning.
In land vehicles, IMUs can be integrated into GPS-based car navigation systems or vehicle tracking systems, giving the system dead reckoning capabilities and the ability to collect as much information as possible about the vehicle’s current speed, turn rate, heading, inclination and acceleration. The accurate data with the vehicle’s wheel speed sensor output as well as the reverse gear signal (if available) are used for better purpose traffic collision analysis.
In addition to navigation purposes, IMUs are used as orientation sensors in many consumer products. Almost all smartphones and tablets contain an IMU as an orientation sensor. Fitness trackers and other wearable devices may also contain IMUs to measure movement, such as running. The IMU is also able to determine an individual’s developmental level while exercising by identifying the specificity and sensitivity of specific parameters related to running. Some gaming systems use IMUs to measure motion. Low-cost IMUs have fueled a boom in the consumer drone industry. They are also frequently used in sports technology (technical training) and animation applications. They are competing technologies for motion capture technology.
In a navigation system, data reported by the IMU is fed into a processor that calculates altitude, speed, and position. A typical implementation called a strapdown inertial system integrates the angular rate of a gyroscope to calculate angular position. It is fused with the gravity vector measured by the accelerometer in a Kalman filter to estimate the attitude. Attitude estimation is used to convert acceleration measurements into an inertial reference frame (hence the name inertial navigation), where they are integrated once to obtain linear velocity and twice to obtain linear position.
For example, if an IMU installed in an aircraft moving along a certain direction vector will measure the aircraft’s acceleration as 5 m/s2 for 1 second, after 1 second the guidance computer will infer that the aircraft must be flying at 5 m/s, and Must be 2.5 m from the initial position (such as a satellite or terrestrial radio transponder, although external sources are still used to correct for drift errors, and since the position inertial navigation system allows the update frequency to be higher than the smoothness of the vehicle motion can be perceived on the map display This method of navigation is used in conjunction with a system called GPS (because the navigation system position output is often used as a reference point to produce a moving map), the guidance system can use this method to show the pilot the aircraft’s geographical position at a certain moment in time. Like a moving map display.
A major disadvantage of using IMUs for navigation is that they are often affected by accumulated errors. Because the guidance system continuously integrates acceleration versus time to calculate velocity and position, any measurement error, no matter how small, accumulates over time. This results in “drift”: a growing discrepancy between where the system thinks it is and where it actually is. Due to integration, a constant error in acceleration results in a linear error growth in velocity and a quadratic error growth in position. A constant error in the attitude rate (gyro) results in a quadratic error growth in velocity and a cubic error growth in position.
IMU performance
There are many types of IMUs, depending on the application type, with performance ranges:
Gyroscope from 0.1°/s to 0.001°/h (angular velocity random walk)
Accelerometers from 100 mg to 10 µg (bias repeatability)
Roughly speaking, this means that for a single uncorrected accelerometer, the cheapest (100 mg) loses its ability to provide 50 meter accuracy after about 10 seconds, while the best accelerometer (10 mg) Lost the ability to provide 50 meter accuracy. µg) loses accuracy over 50 meters after approximately 17 minutes.
The accuracy of the inertial sensors within the inertial measurement unit (IMU) has a more complex impact on the performance of the inertial navigation system (INS).
The behavior of gyroscope and accelerometer sensors is usually represented by errors based on the following, assuming they have appropriate measurement range and bandwidth:
1.Offset error: This error can be divided into stability performance (the drift of the sensor under constant conditions) and repeatability (the error between two measurements under similar conditions, but with different intermediate conditions).
2.Scale factor error: First-order sensitivity error due to non-repeatability and nonlinearity.
3.Misalignment error: due to imperfect mechanical installation.
4.Noise: Depends on required dynamic performance.
5.Environmental sensitivity: mainly sensitivity to thermal gradients and acceleration.
All of these errors depend on various physical phenomena unique to each sensor technology. Depending on the target application and to be able to make the right sensor selection, it is important to consider the needs in terms of short- and long-term stability, repeatability, and environmental sensitivity (mainly thermal and mechanical environments). In most cases, the target performance of the application is better than the absolute performance of the sensor. However, sensor performance is repeatable over time, with more or less accuracy, so it can be evaluated and compensated to enhance its performance. This real-time performance enhancement is based on sensor and IMU models. The complexity of these models will then be chosen based on the performance required and the type of application being considered. The sensor and IMU models are calculated at the factory through a dedicated calibration sequence using a multi-axis turntable and a climate chamber. They can be calculated for each individual product or generally for the entire production. Calibration typically improves a sensor’s original performance by at least twenty years.
Assemble High-performance IMUs or IMUs designed to operate in harsh conditions are often suspended by shock absorbers. These shock absorbers need to master three effects: 1.Reduce sensor errors due to mechanical environmental requirements. 2.Protect sensors as they may be damaged by shock or vibration. 3.Contain spurious IMU motion within a limited bandwidth that processing will be able to compensate for.
Reducing these errors often prompts IMU designers to increase processing frequencies, and this is made easier with the latest digital technology. However, developing algorithms that can eliminate these errors requires deep inertial knowledge and a close understanding of sensor/IMU design. On the other hand, if suspension has the potential to improve IMU performance, it will have side effects on size and mass. The ER-MIMU01 product developed by Ericco uses a three-axis gyroscope and a three-axis accelerometer. Below are the important parameters of the gyroscope and accelerometer added to the ER-MIMU01 model IMU:
As one of the products of inertial sensor,quartz accelerometersare the basic measurement element of inertial navigation and inertial guidance system, and their speed and position are obtained by integrating the acceleration. They work on the basis of Newton’s second law, which state that the resultant force on an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. Therefore, the performance and accuracy of the accelerometer directly affect the accuracy of the navigation and guidance system, and we will briefly understand its advantages and disadvantages.
The advantages of quartz accelerometers
High precision and sensitive
The quartz accelerometer uses digital signal processing technology, the reaction speed is very fast, and it can respond to acceleration changes in an instant. At the same time, it has the characteristics of high precision and high sensitivity. It can accurately measure the acceleration change of the object during the movement and output it as a digital signal. This feature of high precision and high sensitivity. For example, the zero-bias stability of ER-QA-03A is 10-50μg, the scale factor is 15-50 PPM, and the second-order nonlinearity is 10-30μg/g2, which provides accurate data support in the industrial field to help engineers perform accurate motion control and analysis.
Small size and light weight
In the case of limited carrier space design size, this allows small quartz accelerometers to be conveniently installed in a variety of equipment and structures without placing too much burden on them. The small size and light weight also mean that acceleration sensors can operate in limited Spaces and have high reliability. The ER-QA-03Fis a small accelerometer with a diameter of Φ18.2mm, a scale factor of 150-220 PPM, and a second-order nonlinearity of 40-50μg/g2. Compared with products with the same parameters, this accelerometer is a good choice for equipment that can meet the requirements of relevant parameters and meet the strict requirements of space.
Strong ability to adapt to temperature
Quartz accelerometers have a wide operating temperature range. Whether it is in an extremely cold environment or in a high temperature environment, it can work normally. This makes its application in extreme conditions possible. Such as aerospace, deep sea exploration and oil and gas drilling fields. ER-QA-03D can operate normally at a working temperature of -55~180 ° C, and its volume of 25×21mm, impact resistance 500-1000g 0.5ms. The acceleration sensor has the function of self-diagnosis and fault detection. With internal algorithms and automatic calibration, the accelerometer detects and corrects its own faults, ensuring data accuracy and reliability. This self-diagnosis and fault detection capability helps reduce maintenance costs and increase productivity.
The Disadvantages of quartz accelerometers
Temperature effect
In the long-term high temperature environment, the working accuracy of the quartz accelerometer will be affected by the temperature, because the crystal lattice structure changes will lead to changes in the resonant frequency, so the temperature needs to be compensated or used in the appropriate temperature range.
Complex structure
The structure of quartz vibration beam accelerometer is relatively complex, and the manufacturing process requires a high level of technology, so the cost is high.
High cost
The manufacturing and maintenance cost of inertial navigation and positioning system is high, requiring the use of precision instruments to manufacture and debug, and the maintenance cycle is short and the maintenance cost is high.
This paper introduces the advantages of quartz accelerometer such as high precision, high sensitivity, temperature influence, complex structure and high cost, but with the development of quartz accelerometer technology, these disadvantages can be further optimized.

A drone is an aircraft that does not require human piloting. It is equipped with various sensors and control systems and can perform tasks autonomously. The main role of the IMU is attitude control and flight stability. Based on purpose and design features, drones can be divided into the following three types:
✮Fixed wing drone
✮Multi-rotor drone
✮Vertical take-off and landing and transition drone
1. Fixed-wing UAV: The design of this UAV is similar to a traditional aircraft, with fixed wings and tail. It is usually used for long-duration flights and wide-area reconnaissance missions, with high speed and the ability to maintain flight stability. For example, the ER-MIMU02 and ER-MIMU06 developed by Ericco can be used in fixed-wing UAVs to perform the initial alignment of the UAV launch system. The machine performs attitude control.
Product advantages: The bias stability of the gyroscope is reduced to 0.5 degrees per hour. This accuracy level has reached that of MEMS sensors. limit value.
2.Multi-rotor UAV: This type of UAV provides lift and control force through multiple rotors, the most common ones are four-rotor and six-rotor. Multi-rotor drones have vertical take-off and landing and hovering capabilities, and are suitable for tasks such as close-range reconnaissance, aerial photography, and logistics distribution. For example, the ER-MIMU03 and ER-MIMU07 developed by Ericco can be used in multi-rotor drones. These products have built-in acceleration sensors and gyroscopes, which can measure linear acceleration and rotational angular velocity in three directions, and obtain the attitude and speed of the carrier through analysis. and displacement information for precise positioning.
Product advantages: The bias stability of the gyroscope is reduced to 3 degrees per hour. The drone can be well controlled for positioning.
3. Vertical take-off and landing and transition drone: This kind of drone has a variable flight mode and can switch between vertical take-off and landing and horizontal flight. It combines the advantages of fixed-wing UAVs and multi-rotor UAVs, and is suitable for tasks requiring long-term flight and flexible maneuverability. The IMU plays a key role in vertical takeoff and landing and transition drones, and can be used for flight mode conversion. For example, the ER-MIMU04 and ER-MIMU08 developed by Ericco can be used for vertical take-off and landing and transition drones, and can switch flight postures at will.
IMU is not only an important part of the above three types of drones, but also plays an important role in the IMU pod. On the pod, the IMU’s main role is to provide stable images and image transmission. In addition to its two main functions of attitude control and flight stability, it can also be used with other sensors such as GPS (Global Positioning System) and magnetometer to provide more accurate navigation and positioning information.
IMU provides key data for the control and navigation of drones in the field of drone applications, allowing drones to efficiently perform various tasks. Different types of UAVs have different IMU applications depending on their design and purpose, but whether they are fixed-wing, multi-rotor or vertical take-off and landing and transition UAVs, IMU is used to realize their flight control and A key component of navigation.

Tilt sensoris a sensor used to measure the tilt angle of an object relative to the horizontal plane. It can accurately and real-time monitor and record the change of tilt angle, which provides important data support for various industrial applications and scientific research fields.
1. Bridge monitoring
Bridges are an important part of urban traffic, and their stability and safety are crucial to the normal operation of the city. In order to ensure the safety of the bridge, it is necessary to monitor its structure in real time. Tilt sensor can be used to monitor the tilt angle of bridge and provide real-time data support for structural safety. By installing tilt sensors at key parts of the bridge, the tilt angle can be continuously monitored and the data can be transmitted to the control center for analysis. Once abnormal conditions are found, timely measures can be taken for maintenance and reinforcement, thus ensuring the safe use of the bridge. For example, ER-TS-3160VO can be installed in the key part of the bridge to monitor the change of the tilt angle of the bridge, its accuracy is 0.01°, the measurement range is 0~±180°, and the measured value can be output by 0~10V, 0.5~4.5V, 0~5V voltage, which is very suitable for bridge, dam and other monitoring projects.
2. Construction machinery
Excavator — In order to realize the three-dimensional spatial positioning of the excavator, on the basis of installing the angle sensors of each joint of the working device, the platform rotation angle detection device and the platform inclination sensor are installed, and the laser receiver is installed on the bucket rod to detect the height of the horizontal mechanism emitted by the ground laser transmitter relative to the zero position of the receiver. The kinematics model of the excavator is established, and the coordinate transformation matrix of the car body relative to the earth is derived, that is, the car body positioning in three-dimensional space is completed, and the commonly used simple car body elevation positioning formula is obtained, so as to realize the three-dimensional space positioning of the excavator’s excavation trajectory and lay the foundation for realizing the accuracy of the excavator’s three-dimensional space trajectory and the excavator’s depth control.
Other heavy industrial machinery – in addition to excavators, in other heavy industrial machinery, including cranes, lifts, graders, etc., will use tilt sensors, and tilt sensors have a heavy and heavy role in these heavy machinery equipment. It not only ensures that the angle range of these mechanical equipment is within the safety, but also can be raised to the alarm if it is out of range to protect personal safety. For example, the tilt sensor in the retractable robot arm is used to measure the attitude of the cab and the change of the tilt angle of the boom to ensure driving safety. ER-TS-4258CU has strong resistance to external electromagnetic interference and is suitable for long-term work in harsh industrial environments. It can be installed in the retractable arm of the construction machinery, and can measure the attitude of the cab and the tilt angle of the boom in real time, which can ensure the driving safety to the greatest extent.
3. Platform control
Shipborne horizontal platform – The inclination sensor is applied on the shipborne horizontal platform, which is used for shipborne satellite to track the base of the antenna to keep the antenna in a horizontal state at all times, and for real-time control of the platform, which can isolate the pitch and roll motion of the hull and make the platform level.
In addition, the inclination sensor is also applied in the launching process of the ship air bag, and is applied to the hook swing of the large pipe laying ship for monitoring and adjustment.
Application of inclination sensor in automatic levelling system of reference plane of large optoelectronic equipment. The dip angle sensor installed on the base detects the dip angle and direction of the reference plane, converts the angle into the elongation of several mechanical legs according to the leveling algorithm, and drives the elongation of the mechanical legs to make the reference plane level.
Nowadays, with the development of chips, artificial intelligence, and big data technology, drones have begun to become intelligent, terminal, and clustered. A large number of professionals in automation, mechanical electronics, information engineering, microelectronics and other fields have invested in drone research and development. In a few years, drones have flown from military applications far away from people’s sight to ordinary people’s homes. It is undeniable that the development of flight control technology has been the biggest driving force for the transformation of drones in this decade.
Flight control is the abbreviation of flight control system, which can be regarded as the brain of the aircraft. The flight control system is mainly used for flight attitude control and navigation. For flight control, it is necessary to understand the current status of the aircraft, such as three-dimensional position, three-dimensional velocity, three-dimensional acceleration, three-axis angle, three-axis angular velocity, etc. There are 15 states in total. The current flight control system uses an IMU, also called an inertial measurement unit, which consists of a three-axis gyroscope, a three-axis accelerometer, and a three-axis gyroscope. axis geomagnetic sensor and barometer. So what are three-axis gyroscopes, three-axis accelerometers, three-axis geomagnetic sensors, and barometers? What role do they play in an aircraft? What are the three axes?
The three axes of the three-axis gyroscope, three-axis accelerometer, and three-axis geomagnetic sensor refer to the vertical up and down directions of the aircraft’s left and right, front and rear directions, and are generally represented by XYZ. The left and right directions in the aircraft are called roll, the forward and backward directions in the aircraft are called pitch, and the vertical direction is the Z-axis. It’s hard to stand on the ground when the gyroscope isn’t spinning. Only when it rotates does it stand on the ground. This is the gyroscopic effect. Based on the gyroscopic effect, smart people invented the gyroscope. The earliest gyroscopes were high-speed rotating gyroscopes fixed on a frame through three flexible axes. No matter how the outer frame rotates, the high-speed rotating gyroscope in the middle always maintains the same posture. Data such as the rotation angle of the outer frame can be calculated through sensors on three axes.
Due to its higher cost and complex mechanical structure, it has been replaced by electronic gyroscopes. The advantages of electronic gyroscopes are low cost, small size, light weight, only a few grams, and their stability and accuracy are higher than mechanical gyroscopes. At this point you will understand the role of gyroscopes in flight control. It is used to measure the inclination angle of the three XYZ axes.
So what does a three-axis accelerometer do? As mentioned just now, a three-axis gyroscope has three axes: XYZ. Now it goes without saying that a three-axis accelerometer has three axes: XYZ. When we start driving, we feel a push behind us. This thrust is acceleration. Acceleration is the ratio of the change in velocity to the time at which that change occurs. It is a physical quantity that describes the speed of change of an object. Meters to the power per second. For example, when a car comes to a stop, its acceleration is 0. After starting, it takes 10 seconds to go from 0 meters per second to 10 meters per second. This is the acceleration of the car. If the car is traveling at 10 meters per second, its acceleration is 0. Likewise, if it slows down for 10 seconds, from 10 meters per second to 5 meters per second, its acceleration is negative. The three-axis accelerometer is used to measure the acceleration of the XYZ three axes of the aircraft.
When we travel every day, we find our direction based on landmarks or memories. A geomagnetic sensor is a geomagnetic sensor, also known as an electronic compass. It allows the aircraft to know its flight direction, nose direction, and find the mission and return location. A barometer is used to measure the atmospheric pressure at your current location. As we all know, the higher the altitude, the lower the air pressure. This is why people experience altitude sickness after reaching a plateau. A barometer obtains the current altitude by measuring the pressure at different locations and calculating the pressure difference. This is the entire IMU inertial measurement unit. Its role in the aircraft is to sense changes in the attitude of the aircraft, such as whether the aircraft is currently leaning forward or tilting left and right. What role does the most basic attitude data in flight, such as nose orientation, altitude, etc. play in controlling it?
The most basic function of the flight control is to control the balance of the aircraft when flying in the air. It measures the balance through the IMU, senses the current tilt angle data of the aircraft, and compiles it into an electronic signal through a compiler. The signal is transmitted to the microcontroller inside the flight control through the new time of the signal. The microcontroller takes care of the calculations. It calculates the compensation direction and angle based on the current data of the aircraft, and then compiles the compensation data into electronic signals and transmits them to the steering gear or motor. The motor or steering gear is executing the instruction and completing the compensation action. Then the sensor senses that the aircraft is stable and sends real-time data to the microcontroller again. The microcontroller will stop compensating the signal and form a loop. Most flight controls basically have a 10HZ internal loop, which refreshes 10 times per second.
This is the most basic functional application of IMU in the flight control system. Without this feature, once tilted at a certain angle, the aircraft would quickly lose balance and cause a crash.
Ericco’s MEMS IMUs ER-MIMU-03 and ER-MIMU-04, ER-MIMU-07 and ER-MIMU-08 have built-in high-precision advanced MEMS gyroscopes and high-performance accelerometers, which can measure linear acceleration and rotation in three directions. Angular velocity, and obtain the attitude, speed and displacement information of the carrier through analysis. They are designed for high-performance applications in inertial navigation equipment such as UAV flight control. Provides excellent stability over a temperature range of –45° C to 80° C. An advanced gyro sensor design suppresses the linear acceleration effects of shock and vibration, making it possible for the ER-MIMU-04, ER-MIMU-07 and ER-MIMU-08 to operate in harsh environments.
In addition to being used in drones, ERICCO’s MEMS products are also becoming more and more popular in oil drilling, mining and other application markets. MEMS technology is developing into a huge industry. Just as the microelectronics industry and computer industry have brought tremendous changes to mankind in the past 20 years, MEMS has also given birth to a profound technological change and has had a new round of impact on human society.
Tilt sensor is a high-precision instrument that can accurately measure the tilt angle of an object relative to the plane. This instrument is widely used in various fields, including engineering, construction, geophysics, etc. Whether it is a large bridge project or a small product design, the inclination sensor is an indispensable tool.
In the world around us, angles are everywhere. Whether it’s the slope of a tall building, or the tilt of a bridge, all of these things require accurate angle measurement. So how do you measure these tilt angles accurately? The answer is tilt sensors.
How does it work?
So, how does the inclination sensor work? The principle is very simple. Inside the inclination sensor is a MEMS acceleration sensor that senses the direction of gravity. When the object is tilted, the sensor senses the change in gravity and calculates the angle of tilt of the object. Such as the ER-TS-3160VO, it has a built-in MEMS accelerometer, by measuring the change in the gravity field, it can be converted into a change in inclination, and output the inclination value through the voltage. It uses the non-contact measurement principle, can output the current attitude and inclination in real time, small size, strong impact and vibration resistance, very suitable for harsh industrial environments.
Especially widely used
Tilt sensors have a wide range of applications. In the construction field, engineers can use inclination sensors to detect the tilt of a building and make timely corrections. In the field of geophysics, scientists can use inclination sensors to study the movement of the Earth’s crust and predict natural disasters such as earthquakes. In daily life, we can also use inclination sensors to detect the tilt angle of various devices, such as mobile phones, tablets and so on.
In addition to applications in the above fields, tilt sensors can also be used in other fields. For example, in the automotive sector, inclination sensors can be used to detect the degree of tilt of a vehicle and thus control the stability of the vehicle. In the field of aerospace, inclination sensors are also widely used in attitude control of various aircraft.
Inclination sensor is a kind of high precision measuring instrument, which is widely used in various fields. By understanding how tilt sensors work and their applications, we can better understand and use this amazing instrument. In addition to the above mentioned areas, tilt sensors have a wide range of application prospects. For example, in the field of robotics, inclination sensors can help robots sense the tilt of the environment and thus better adapt to the environment. For example, the inclination sensor ER-TS-4258CU can be used to measure the inclination angle between the robot car body and the horizontal plane, so as to control the movement of the moving motor of the counterweight block, and adjust the center of mass of the robot to the arm suspended on the overhead ground wire. The measurement angle should be controlled within the range of 90° with an accuracy of ±0.1°, so that the robot body can maintain a horizontal posture and ensure that the arm that needs to be off-line or on the line can complete the corresponding action. In the medical field, inclination sensors can be used to monitor a patient’s posture, helping doctors assess and prevent potential health problems.
Future development trend
With the continuous progress of technology, the accuracy and stability of tilt sensors are also improving. Future tilt sensors may have stronger data processing capabilities, able to process and analyze large amounts of data in real time, providing more accurate results for a variety of applications.
Summary: The inclination sensor uses advanced sensing technology, with high precision, good stability, strong anti-interference ability and other advantages, it can monitor the tilt angle of the equipment in real time, and transmit the data to the equipment for processing and application, can help your equipment to better perceive the surrounding environment, improve safety and reliability.
Whether in industry, agriculture, aerospace or other fields, inclination sensors have a wide range of applications.
