Work is underway to create a complete 17 state Kalman filtered inertial navigation solution! Watch the demonstration video of the current 7-state system.

The IMU features the following hardware:

  • Analog Devices AXDRS150 5V 150 deg/s gyros (top left)
  • MMA7260 3-axis 1.5 - 6g accelerometer (center left)
  • 3.3V LDO regulator (lower left)
  • Micromag 3-axis SPI magnetometer (right)
  • MAX1167 Multichannel, 16-Bit, 200ksps Analog-to-Digital Converter (below Micromag)
  • LPC2148 ARM7 microcontroller (below Micromag)
