What Does IMU Mean for A Drone?

Definition of drone:

The full name of “unmanned aircraft” is unmanned aircraft, which is operated by radio remote control equipment and self-provided program control devices, or by the on-board computer fully or intermittently autonomous operation. In order to make the UAV fly perfectly, IMU(Inertial Measurement Unit), gyroscope stabilization and flight controller technology are essential.

Working principle

The flight control of UAV is composed of main control MCU and inertial measurement module IMU. IMU provides the original sensor data of the aircraft’s attitude in space, and the data of the aircraft is generally provided by the gyroscope sensor/acceleration sensor/electronic compass. Gyroscopic stabilization technology is one of the most important components, allowing the drone to fly super-smoothly even in strong winds and gusts. This smooth flight allows us to take fantastic aerial views of the beautiful planet. With excellent flight stability and waypoint navigation, the UAV can generate high-quality 3D photogrammetry and liDAR images. The latest drones use an integrated head, which also includes built-in gyroscopic stabilization technology, so that the on-board camera or sensor has little to no vibration. This allows us to capture perfect aerial film and photographs. In order to meet the requirements of UAV equipment, the ER-MG2-300/400 gyroscopes not only use advanced differential sensor design, can eliminate the effects of linear acceleration and operate in the presence of shock and vibration in the extremely harsh environment, but also have a measurement range of 400 degrees/second and 0.01°/ hour bias instability. Capable of measuring angular velocities up to ±400°/s and has a digital output protocol compliant with SPI from mode 3. Angular rate data is expressed as 24-bit words.

Technical influence

The application of IMU in UAVs is not limited to attitude control and flight stability. It can also be used with other sensors such as GPS (Global Positioning System) and magnetometers to provide more accurate navigation and positioning information. At the same time, IMU can also be used for UAV attitude estimation, motion detection, obstacle avoidance and other functions, improve the autonomy and safety of the UAV, provide key data for the control and navigation of the UAV, so that the UAV can efficiently perform various tasks. The application of IMU will vary depending on the design and use of different types of UAVs, but whether it is fixed wing, multi-rotor or vertical take-off and landing and conversion UAVs, IMU is the core to achieve its flight control and navigation.

Application of Tilt Sensor in Vehicle Four-wheel Positioning

 

Tilt sensor in the four-wheel locator

For different four-wheel positioning equipment, the key role is to measure the accuracy of the tilt sensor. Modern cars generally adopt front and rear independent suspension, and the main parameters detected by the four-wheel alignment instrument are wheel camber, kingpin rear angle, kingpin internal angle and front bundle. For the measurement of the above tilt angles, except the front beam angle is generally realized by the rotary disk or the angle sensor, and the other angles are generally adopted by the tilt sensor. The tilt sensor is fixed on the four-wheel alignment mounting plate, and then installed on the wheel of the car through the clamp.

Due to the reason of automobile structure, the tilt measurement of automobile wheel positioning angle is divided into direct measurement and indirect measurement. From the definition of wheel inclination, it can be seen that the measurement of wheel camber can be measured directly by the tilt sensor, while the kingpin internal inclination and kingpin rear inclination are not, because the kingpin is installed on the inside of the wheel, generally can not be measured directly by the tilt sensor. The measurement range of wheel inclination should be about ±15°. In today’s models, the inclination adjustment deviation value is generally about 5′, such as: Shanghai Volkswagen PASSAT B5 front wheel camber value is -0°35′ to ±0°25′, so the sensor measurement resolution should be less than or equal to 5′.

What is car four-wheel positioning?

From the structure of the car, the car’s steering wheel (front wheel), steering knuckle and front axle installation between the three has a certain relative position, this installation with a certain relative position is called steering wheel positioning, also known as front wheel positioning. Front wheel positioning includes

Kingpin back tilt (angle), kingpin inward tilt (angle), front wheel outward tilt (angle) and front wheel front bundle four contents. For the two rear wheels, there is also a relative position between the installation and the rear axle, called the rear wheel positioning. Rear wheel positioning includes wheel roll out (angle) and one rear wheel front bundle. In this way, the front wheel positioning and the rear wheel positioning are called four-wheel positioning.

When the vehicle leaves the factory, the positioning angle is pre-set according to the design requirements. These positioning angles are used together to ensure the driving comfort and safety of the vehicle. However, because the vehicle is sold and driven for a period of time, these positioning angles will change due to traffic accidents, severe bumps caused by uneven road potholes (especially when driving at high speed suddenly encounter uneven roads), chassis parts wear, chassis parts replacement, tire replacement and other reasons. Once the positioning angle changes due to any reason, it may produce uncomfortable symptoms such as abnormal tire wear, vehicle deviation, reduced safety, increased fuel consumption, accelerated wear of parts, heavy direction, and vehicle drift. Some symptoms make the vehicle very dangerous at high speeds.

What is a four-wheel locator?

The purpose of four-wheel positioning maintenance service is to diagnose and treat the above causes of vehicle discomfort by measuring the positioning Angle. Generally, the new car should be four-wheel positioning after 3 months of driving, and every 10,000 kilometers after driving, replacing the tire or shock absorber, and after the collision should be timely four-wheel positioning. The correct positioning of the wheel can ensure that the steering is flexible, the seat is comfortable, the straight line driving is maintained, the life of the tire is extended, and the vibration caused by the road is reduced.

At present, most of the instruments used for wheel positioning detection are “four-wheel positioning instrument”. During the detection, the four-wheel positioning instrument first measures the current four-wheel positioning parameters of the car, and then the computer automatically compares it with the stored value of the corresponding model to calculate the deviation value of the four-wheel positioning of the car, and the maintenance personnel can restore the original state by correcting the prompts of the positioning instrument.

Differences between MEMS IMU and FOG IMU

 

Due to the different gyroscopes they have, these two types of IMUs are very different. Their 10 differences will be introduced below.

1.Technology:
MEMS IMUs use microelectromechanical systems with accelerometers and gyroscopes based on micromachining technology.The FOG IMU uses a fiber optic gyroscope, which utilizes the principle of light interference in optical fibers.

2.Working principles:
MEMS IMUs use the deflection of microstructures due to acceleration or rotation to measure motion.
The FOG IMU measures motion by detecting the phase shift of light due to rotation in a fiber optic coil.

3.Accuracy:
Compared to MEMS IMUs, FOG IMUs have higher accuracy and precision. This makes them particularly useful in situations where users rely on the IMU for long periods of time: accurate systems can calculate a position close to the true position even after hours.

4.Size and shape:
MEMS IMUs are smaller and more compact, making them suitable for integration into smaller devices such as consumer electronics.
FOG IMUs are typically larger and heavier, and are often used in larger systems such as aerospace and defense applications.

5.Cost:
MEMS IMUs are generally more cost-effective than FOG IMUs, making them widely used in consumer products.
FOG IMUs are more expensive due to their greater precision, highly specialized internal components, and complex advanced manufacturing processes.

6.Energy consumption:
MEMS IMUs typically have lower power consumption, making them suitable for portable and battery-operated devices.
FOG IMUs consume more power, which is less important in applications such as land vehicles and aircraft where power supplies are readily available.

7.Application:
MEMS IMU can be used for north seeking in logging tools/gyro tools, pointing, steering and initial alignment in guided weapons/drone launch systems in advanced mining/drilling equipment, direction in satellite antennas, target tracking systems , pointing and tracking navigation-level MEMS guidance and navigation in weapon systems, directional railway train systems, navigation-level MEMS IMU/INS for precise attitude and position, measurement of north seeking and positioning in geodesy/land mobile mapping systems, Oil exploration, bridges, high-rise buildings, towers, dam monitoring, geotechnical monitoring, mining, etc.
FOG IMUs are commonly used in aerospace, defense, marine navigation and other high-precision applications, particularly where GNSS is unavailable or unreliable, such as underground mining or military environments.

8.Robustness:
MEMS IMUs can be susceptible to environmental factors such as extreme temperatures and high vibrations, which can affect their accuracy.
The FOG IMU is more robust and stable, making it better suited for particularly harsh and demanding environments.

9.Calibration and automatic north seeking:
Due to possible drift over time, MEMS IMUs may require more frequent calibrations to maintain accuracy. They are not sensitive enough to automatically find an accurate heading unless connected to a GNSS receiver.
FOG IMUs have better long-term stability and typically require less frequent calibrations to maintain accurate heading or position. The most accurate fiber optic gyroscope systems are so sensitive that they can determine where north is by detecting the Earth’s rotation.

10.Integration:
Because MEMS IMUs are smaller and have lower power requirements, they are easier to integrate into compact devices.
FOG IMUs are typically used in larger systems to accommodate their size and weight and their higher power needs.

Selection of MEMS IMU and FOG IMU
In summary, the choice of IMU depends on the application and environment. You can choose the IMU type that suits you according to different application scenarios, accuracy requirements, etc.

MEMS IMUs are ideal for: lightweight, small size, low power consumption, short-range pointing sensors, and GNSS integration in predictable dynamic environments.

FOG IMU is suitable for: absolute attitude accuracy, high temperature, high vibration, bias stability over time.

Classification and Working Principle of Accelerometer

 

Accelerometer is a device that can measure the acceleration experienced by an object. Acceleration can be defined as the force applied per unit of mass, A=F/m. It is the rate of change of an object’s velocity with respect to time.

There are many types of accelerometers: linear accelerometers (detection mass for linear displacement) and pendulum accelerometers (detection mass rotation around the support shaft) are categorized according to the displacement type of detection quality; gemstone supports and flexible supports are classified according to the support type. , Air flotation, liquid floatation, magnetic levitation, electrostatic suspension, etc.According to the composition of measurement systems, there are open-loop type and closed-loop type; according to the working principle, there are vibrating wire type, oscillating beam type and pendulum type gyro accelerometer; The number of input shafts is classified into uniaxial, biaxial and triaxial accelerometers; they are classified by sensor elements, such as piezoelectric, piezoresistive and potentiometer type. An accelerometer is usually named by combining the features of several different classifications.

There are four types of accelerometers:

1. Piezoelectric accelerometer

Piezoelectric accelerometers work by sending an electrical signal from the sensor when sudden acceleration is encountered. The structure of the piezoelectric accelerometer consists of a sensing crystal on which seismic weights are attached. When the sensor experiences acceleration, the weight exerts a force on the crystal. The piezoelectric crystal converts the force acting on it into an electrical signal that can be measured to find the acceleration. Piezoelectric accelerometers are very effective at measuring shock and vibration.

2.piezoresistive accelerometer

Piezoresistive or piezoresistive accelerometers work by changing their resistance according to the acceleration experienced. Changes in acceleration can be measured to understand the rate of acceleration experienced by the sensor. Piezoresistive accelerometers are not as sensitive as piezoelectric accelerometers because they are not the best at measuring low frequency effects. However, they work best at high amplitudes and have found their applications in vehicle crash testing and weapon testing. Capacitive accelerometers: Capacitive sensors work by changing their capacitance based on the acceleration they experience. Their structure consists of two capacitive plates and a diaphragm. When the sensor experiences acceleration, the diaphragm moves, changing the distance between the capacitor plates. This causes a change in the capacitance of the sensor, and this change in capacitance can be measured and converted into acceleration on the sensor. You’ll find capacitive MEMS(micro-electro-mechanical System) accelerometers in most smartphones today.

3. Capacitive accelerometer

These types of accelerometers sense capacitance changes associated with acceleration. The sensing element of a capacitive accelerometer consists of two parallel-plate capacitors operating in differential mode.
These shunt capacitors operate in a bridge circuit, and they have two fixed capacitors that change the peak voltage produced by the oscillator while the sensor is in an accelerated state. The detection circuit detects the peak voltage, which is fed to the adding amplifier to process the output signal.

4. Three-axis accelerometer

A triaxial accelerometer can measure acceleration in three orthogonal directions (or three vertical planes-x, Y, and Z). This feature enables the three-axis accelerometer to measure all vibration components affecting an object. The triaxial accelerometer consists of three sensing elements that are perpendicular to each other. They can be used to measure building vibrations, turbines and high-speed machinery.

Resolution and Accuracy of Tilt Sensors

 

Accuracy and resolution of tilt sensors

Resolution refers to the sensor in the measurement range can detect and resolve the smallest change in the measured value. The accuracy refers to the error between the angle measured by the sensor and the real angle.

The relationship between precision and resolution with examples 

Take the familiar vernier calipers. We often say that the accuracy of the vernier caliper is 0.1mm, in fact, this statement is not correct, it should be said that the resolution of the vernier caliper is 0.1mm. That is, when the change in length is 0.1mm, Can our eyes see it, tell it apart. The accuracy of the vernier caliper, because the accuracy represents the difference between the measured value and the true value, the accuracy is related to many factors. For example, temperature causes thermal expansion and contraction, when we see a change of 0.1mm, the real may be 0.09mm, such as the caliper bending, or the caliper engraving line is not particularly uniform, will lead to poor accuracy, but the resolution is still 0.1mm. To improve the accuracy of the measurement, we must first improve the resolution of the measurement, if the resolution can not be distinguished, then the accuracy from where to start. Resolution is the limit of accuracy, improve the resolution at the same time to eliminate the impact of other factors on the accuracy, in order to effectively improve the final accuracy.

The angle sensor based on acceleration principle is illustrated in detail. It is the measurement of gravitational acceleration on the sensitive axis of the acceleration sensor into angle data, that is, the angle value and the acceleration value into a sine relationship.

The resolution of tilt sensors are also often referred to as sensitivity. It is mainly caused by the noise of the sensor. The noise equivalent angular change is called the angular resolution. Because the size of the noise is related to the frequency response, the higher the frequency response, the greater the noise. The resolution of the sensor can be improved effectively by taking effective measures to suppress the noise. After the resolution is improved, there is a chance to compensate for the adverse impact of other factors on the accuracy.

Other factors affecting the accuracy of tilt sensors

Of course, there are many factors that affect the accuracy of tilt sensors, in addition to the most important resolution, but also include:

Zero bias–depending on the characteristics of the core sensitive device itself, it means that the sensor in the absence of angle input (such as absolute horizontal plane), the sensor measurement output is not zero, the actual output angle value is zero bias.

Nonlinearity— can be corrected later, depending on the number of correction points. The more correction points, the better the nonlinearity.

Horizontal axis error— refers to the error caused by coupling to the output signal of the sensor when the sensor applies a certain acceleration perpendicular to its sensitive axis or tilts at a certain angle.

Input shaft non-alignment – refers to the installation deviation of the sensor in the actual installation process, which actually includes the input shaft non-alignment and vertical shaft non-alignment errors.

Sum up

We use specific tilt sensors products to look at the relationship between resolution and accuracy, for example, our ER-TS-12200-Modbus, from the main parameters can be seen, its resolution is 0.0005°, that is, within the measurement range of ±30° can detect and distinguish the smallest change value measured is 0.0005°, the resolution is quite high. The comprehensive accuracy within the full temperature of -40~85° can reach 0.001°, because its resolution has been improved a lot, so its accuracy is naturally improved. 

In the following figure, the main parameters of ER-TS-3160VO Low cost Voltage Type Single Axis Tilt Sensor, in different measurement ranges, its resolution is not the same, at ±10° its resolution can reach 0.001°, the accuracy is 0.01°. By comparing the parameters of these two products, we can see a relationship between resolution and accuracy. The resolution is low, the accuracy is relatively low, if the resolution is improved, the accuracy will be improved accordingly.

What Is A Flexible Pendulum Accelerometer?

 

Quartz flexible accelerometer, as a classic high-precision mechanical pendulum accelerometer, is one of the key components in the field of high-precision applications. Quartz flexible accelerometer has been developed for more than 50 years, it is in the mid-1960s with the development of low-cost inertial navigation system requirements, developed on the basis of mature liquid floating pendulum accelerometer non-liquid floating dry accelerometer. The liquid floating pendulum accelerometer is large, the processing and assembly process requirements are very strict, the sealing requirements are very high, and the cost is high. Because the quartz flexible accelerometer adopts flexible support technology, the structure and process are greatly simplified, and the accuracy and reliability have fully met the application requirements of modern inertial navigation systems, so the production is more widely used.

1.Structural design

Pendulum accelerometer with flexible support.The pendulum assembly is connected with the instrument housing by two flexible rods.The bending stiffness of the flexible bar around the output shaft is very low, while the stiffness in other directions is very high.Its basic working principle is similar to that of a liquid pendulum accelerometer.The system has a high – gain servo amplifier that keeps the pendulum assembly operating near zero.In this way, the bending of the flexible bar is very small and the introduced elastic moment is also small, so the meter can achieve very high accuracy.This type of accelerometer is available in oil filled type and dry type.The oil-filled type is filled with high viscosity liquid as damping liquid, which can improve the dynamic characteristics of the instrument and enhance the anti-vibration and anti-impact ability.The dry accelerometer adopts electromagnetic damping or air film damping, which facilitates miniaturization, reduces costs and shortens startup time, but the accuracy is lower than that of the oil-filled accelerometer.

2.Factors affecting the performance of quartz flexible accelerometer

There are many precise mechanical parts in the quartz flexible accelerometer. As the core part of the accelerometer, the dial head plays a decisive role in the range and performance of the accelerometer. The two indexes of measuring the accuracy of the accelerometer are mainly zero offset value and scale factor stability, which can reflect the comprehensive performance of the accuracy of the accelerometer. Analyzing the influencing factors is very important to improve the accuracy of the accelerometer.

2.1 Stiffness of quartz flexible beam

The pendulum component of the accelerometer is supported by two parallel quartz flexible beams. This design allows the flexible beam to be considered as pure bending when the Angle is shifted, that is, the stiffness is very small in the direction of the input axis and very large in the direction perpendicular to the input direction. When the pendulum component of the accelerometer moves, the capacitor position sensor will detect the offset of the pendulum component, feed back to the meter head circuit and output the feedback current to the torque coil, and the electromagnetic force will make the pendulum component return to the balance position. If the feedback moment or inertia moment is too large or too small, the pendulum component will be twisted. If the bending application cannot bear the torsional moment because of the quartz flexible beam material, the pendulum component will produce angular oscillation of the gas film, which is a very dangerous and destructive phenomenon.

Therefore, the range of quartz flexible pendulum acceleration will be affected by the stiffness of the flexible beam. The flexible beam of the existing accelerometer is designed according to the range standard of ±30g ~ ±60g, and the small-range accelerometer requires much smaller sensitive acceleration and high resolution, so the thickness and width of the flexible beam can be appropriately reduced, thereby reducing the stiffness of the flexible beam.

2.2 Magnetic induction intensity of permanent magnet

The magnetic induction intensity of permanent magnet materials is not constant, and it will be interfered with by various external environments. When the temperature rises, the magnetic induction intensity decreases. On the contrary, the magnetic induction intensity increases. But its variation is nonlinear, its magnetic induction intensity temperature repeatability is very poor, which has a great impact on the overall performance of the torquer. At the same time, the magnetic induction intensity of permanent magnets will also weaken with the change of time. Therefore, the stability of permanent magnet is also a major factor affecting the stability of accelerometer. At the same time, after the permanent magnet is magnetized, its magnetic field can not be changed, which makes the quartz flexible accelerometer relatively poor ability to adapt to the environment. Therefore, in order to improve the accuracy of the accelerometer, it is necessary to improve the design of the torque field.

2.3 Temperature

When the quartz flexible pendulum accelerometer is working, the internal temperature of the accelerometer will increase, and the torque coil will heat itself when passing the feedback current, which will also cause the temperature change of the meter head. Temperature is the main factor affecting the scale factor and zero deviation of quartz flexible pendulum accelerometer. In order to meet the accuracy requirements of the airborne gravimeter for the accelerometer, it is necessary to control the temperature of the accelerometer.

2.4 Damping interference

In quartz flexible pendulum acceleration, air damping is the most important damping, in addition to some electromagnetic damping generated by the torque coil. The formation of electromagnetic damping is because when the pendulum component swings up and down, the magnetic field of the working gap of the torquer will act on the coil of the pendulum component, generating induced voltage and current. Therefore, the internal damping interference is also a factor affecting the resolution of the quartz flexible pendulum accelerometer.

3.Summary

Through the above content, learn about the structural design of the flexible accelerometer and the factors that affect the performance, among many manufacturers, ericco stands out in the market with high-quality accelerometer products, with ER-QA-03A as the representative of high performance, its  bias repeatability is 10-50μg  and  scale factor repeatability is  15-50 ppm ，it is that integrates accuracy and reliability.
