IMU100 Inertial Measurement Unit widely used in Unmanned Aircraft

UAV is unmanned aerial vehicle, commonly known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. The flight of UAVs may operate with various degrees of autonomy: either under remote control by a human operator or autonomously by onboard computers.

SkyMEMS IMU100 Inertial Measurement Unit is an industrial level IMU module, it can provide continuous acceleration and gyro angle for the UAV, which has been widely used in small UAV flight control.

IMU100 Inertial Measurement Unit widely used in smart agriculture

Smart agriculture has changed the way farmers work their land. Real-time location information also allows farmers to maximize field utilization by avoiding missed or overlapping planting and harvesting efforts while minimizing time and fuel usage through optimized travel. Such systems can also provide semi-autonomous piloting of farm machinery to reduce driver fatigue and allow efficient operation even in low visibility conditions such as dust, fog, rain, and darkness. Currently more than 50% of farmland, great and small in extent, now utilizes smart agriculture methods with adoption continually increasing.

Because they can accurately measure the movement of objects in three dimensions, IMU modules are essential to modern society. They are utilized in many more applications than just the automatic control and autonomous driving on tractors and other agricultural machinery used for precision agriculture. Examples include orientation measurement during autonomous driving, drone orientation control, camera and antenna vibration detection and control, and controlling the angle and attitude of blades and arms on construction and mining equipment. The high-precision detection of tiny changes in movement, which are too small for the human eye to detect, makes IMUs vital to high-precision data measurement and control of machinery.

SkyMEMS’s IMU modules use high-performance MEMS sensors that features excellent stability, low power consumption and low noise characteristics.. And their linearity characteristics enable high-precision measurement of various kinds of movement over a wide range from slow to fast. This allows them to be used in a broad array of smart agriculture applications.

FAQ

Q: What is Disadvantages of INS?

A: 1) Mean-squared navigation errors increase with time.

2) Cost, including:

– Acquisition cost

– Operations cost,

– Maintenance cost.

3) Size and weight, which have been shrinking

4)Power requirements, which have been shrinking along with size and weight but are still higher than those for GPS receivers.

5)Heat dissipation, which is proportional to and shrinking with power

requirements.

Q: What is the Degrees of freedom of IMU sensor?

A: IMUs measure six degrees of freedom. This includes the measurement of linear motion over three perpendicular axes (surge, heave, and sway), as well as rotational movement about three perpendicular axes (roll, pitch, and yaw). This yields six independent measurements that together define the movement of an object or vehicle.

Q: What is the Sensor types that IMU sensor is composed of?

A: The IMU is comprised of at least two dedicated sensors, one or more linear accelerometers and one or more gyroscopes or angular accelerometers. An optional magnetometer may be integrated into the unit to calibrate against orientation drift.

Accelerometers detect the direction and magnitude of change in velocity. Simple accelerometers measure linear motion while biaxial and triaxial accelerometers detect a change in velocity over a plane or three-dimensional space, respectively. The IMU possesses a triaxial (sometimes referred to as a triad) accelerometer, or otherwise uses multiple accelerometers that are aligned across perpendicular axes.

Gyroscopes detect the angular rate or orientation about a given directional vector. The angular rate is relative to a reference surface. The IMU uses multi-axis gyros to provide measurements in three orthogonal directions. These angular movements must be aligned with those of the accelerometer.

Q: How about the delivery time?

A: for our standard model, if we have them in stock, only need 2~3days to re-test before shipping, if it is out of stock, then need around 2 weeks to arrange the production and tests. For the ODM electronic product, if needing to modify the structure, it will need around 3~4 weeks to arrange the production and tests.

Q: How to arrange the payment?

A: about the payment, please pay to our company account, the beneficiary’s name: NANJING SKY MEMS TECHNOLOGY CO., LTD.  And our email is only @skymems.com to contact with u formally. To notice this to avoid the loss.
