Vehicle Inertial Measurement / Racelogic IMU03

The IMU 03 from Applied Measurement provides highly accurate measurements of velocity, pitch, roll, and yaw, using three yaw rate sensors and three accelerometers. It is a CAN based unit and is temperature compensated with improved calibration and stability.

The IMU 03 is designed for use either as a stand-alone sensor with simple connection and configuration via the CAN bus interface, or for use with VBOX GPS data-loggers.

When used in conjunction with VBOX 3i, data from the IMU can be seamlessly integrated with GPS to produce pitch and roll values as well as smoother, more reliable position data. This ensures premium quality GPS data even when satellite reception is interrupted.

The IMU 03 is constructed with a splash-proof casing, which is rated to a limited ingress IP rating of IP65, making it ideal for use on boats or in harsh environments, as well as automotive testing.

Using synchronous 24bit sampling for each of the internal sensors provides a high degree of accuracy with yaw rate resolution typically 0.01 degrees per second and acceleration resolution down to 0.002g.
