Measurement Unit
- RLVBIMU02
Overview
The RLVBIMU02 is an advanced inertial measurement
sensor containing three accelerometers and three yaw
rate sensors which, when combined with the VBOX
data logging system, can provide information such as
vehicle pitch, roll and yaw.
The IMU is now constructed with a splash-proof casing,
which is rated to a limited ingress IP rating of IP66,
making it ideal for use on boats or in harsh
environments.
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.
The IMU02 is designed for use with the Racelogic
VBOX range of GPS data acquisition systems or as a
stand-alone sensor with simple connection and
configuration via the CAN bus interface.
Features
• Yaw rate range ±150˚/s
• Acceleration range ±1.7g in each axis
• Internal temperature compensation
• Yaw rate resolution 0.01˚/s
• Acceleration resolution 1mg
• CAN Bus interface
