MechTrack^TM

An Integrated Accelerometer - Rate Gyro System

Download Data Sheet

MechTrack^TM is a fully compensated, six degree-of-freedom (DOF) digital inertial measurement unit (IMU) for many applications including vehicle dynamics measurement and control systems, autonomous vehicles and robotics.  It integrates 3 linear accelerometers and 3 angular rate gyros with user-adjustable signal conditioning, 12-bit resolution and an update rate of up to 500Hz.  The MechTrack accelerometers are available in ranges ±2g and ±10g.   The gyros are available in ranges of ±75°/s, ±150°/s, or ±300°/s.  MechTrack is available in a compact, mountable and hermetically sealed package.  

Features:

• 6 DOF motion sensing with three linear accelerometers and three angular rate gyroscopes
• Fully calibrated and compensated digital outputs for temperature and physical misalignment
• Factory selected accelerometer bandwidth from DC-10 Hz to DC-250 Hz, in the range of ±2g or ±10g
• Factory selected rate gyro bandwidth from DC-10Hz to DC-250Hz, in the range of ±75 °/s, ±150 °/s, or ±300 °/s
• Update rate up to 500 Hz per channel
