Inclinometer
3 Axis Inclinometer and Gyroscope Sensor
The 3 Axis Inclinometer and Gyroscope Sensor is a combined sensor for the measurement of angular velocity and inclination in 3 axes. Acceleration is also available. The measured quantities are available on the CANbus or as discrete analog outputs, current or voltage.The Inclinometer and Gyroscope Sensor uses MEMS (Micro Electrical Mechanical Systems) technology which carries numerous advantages:
- Lower costs
- High functional density, which means more components can be fit in a smaller area
- Reliability
- Efficiency in current consumption
- Dynamic
Applications
- Vibration compensation
- Platform stabilization
- Tilt switches
- Stabilization of wind energy converter
Characteristics
- Measuring angular rate in 3 axes
- Measuring acceleration in 3 axes
- Calculation pitch in the respective axis
