Cloud Cap Technology公司 貫性導航設備[ Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)]:

The Crista Inertial Measurement Unit is a very small three axis inertial sensor that provides high resolution digital rate and acceleration data via serial interfaces. It uses MEMS gyroscopic rate sensors and accelerometers mounted on orthogonal axes to provide 300 º /sec rate and 10G acceleration data.

The Crista IMU does not provide a calculated attitude solution, but rather provides temperature compensated raw rate and acceleration data for the host algorithms. The user controls data update rate and over-sample averaging of output data. A GPS Pulse Per Second input signal interface allows time correlation of IMU and GPS data.

Notes:

Higher rate ranges are possible. Other specs may change. Call for information.
Room ambient specification. Nonlinearity from best fit straight line. Typically much better at lower rates/accelerations.
Includes alignment and effect of off axis acceleration.

Recent technological advances in both autopilots and engines have made the long overdue promise of small, low-cost UAVs a reality. UAV integrators now need a compact, off the shelf, lightweight, and low-cost stabilized PTZ Gimbal.

To address this need, Cloud Cap Technology has developed the TASE Gimbal. This work is an extension of our very successful work on the Piccolo autopilots leveraging off Cloud Cap’s existing hardware and software development expertise and production capability.
