The UM6 ultra-miniature orientation sensor from CH Robotics uses rate gyros, accelerometers, magnetic sensors, and an onboard 32-bit ARM Cortex processor to compute sensor orientation 1000 times per second. Sensor orientation is reported using either quaternions or Euler angles over a TTL serial interface at user-customizable rates. The UM6 was designed specifically to be easy to use — an external enclosure protects sensitive electronics, and connectors make it easy to interface with the sensor without making solder connections to the sensor itself.

The UM6-LT ultra-miniature orientation sensor from CH Robotics is an OEM version of their UM6 orientation sensor, providing equivalent functionality without the enclosure or connectors. Like the UM6, it uses rate gyros, accelerometers, magnetic sensors, and an on-board 32-bit ARM Cortex processor to compute sensor orientation 1000 times per second. Sensor orientation is reported using either quaternions or Euler angles over a TTL serial interface at user-customizable rates.

The Pololu AltIMU-10 is an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and altimeter that features the same L3GD20 gyro and LSM303DLHC accelerometer and magnetometer as the MinIMU-9 v2, and adds an LPS331AP digital barometer. An I²C interface accesses ten independent pressure, rotation, acceleration, and magnetic measurements that can be used to calculate the sensor’s altitude and absolute orientation. The board operates from 2.5 to 5.5 V and has a 0.1″ pin spacing.

The Pololu MinIMU-9 v2 is an inertial measurement unit (IMU) that packs an L3GD20 3-axis gyro and an LSM303DLHC 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis magnetometer onto a tiny 0.8″ × 0.5″ board. An I²C interface accesses nine independent rotation, acceleration, and magnetic measurements that can be used to calculate the sensor’s absolute orientation. The MinIMU-9 v2 board includes a voltage regulator and a level-shifting circuit that allows operation from 2.5 to 5.5 V, and the 0.1″ pin spacing makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1″ perfboards.

The LSM303DLHC combines a digital 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis magnetometer into a single package that is ideal for making a tilt-compensated compass. The six independent readings, whose sensitivities can be set in the ranges of ±2 to ±16 g and ±1.3 to ±8.1 gauss, are available through an I²C interface. This LSM303 carrier board includes a 3.3 V voltage regulator and integrated level shifters that allows operation from 2.5 to 5.5 V, and the 0.1" pin spacing makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1" perfboards.

The LSM303DLM combines a digital 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis magnetometer into a single package that is ideal for making a tilt-compensated compass. The six independent readings, whose sensitivities can be set in the ranges of ±2 to ±8 g and ±1.3 to ±8.1 gauss, are available through an I²C interface. This LSM303 carrier board operates from 2.6 to 5.5 V and has a 0.1″ pin spacing.
Clearance: This board is being replaced by the newer, pin-compatible LSM303DLHC carrier.

This triple-axis accelerometer is a carrier board for the Freescale MMA7361L XYZ-axis accelerometer, a great low-g sensor with analog voltage outputs and adjustable sensitivity (±1.5 g or ±6 g), and a 0g-detect digital output that signals when the board is in free-fall. The board has a 3.3V linear regulator that enables an input voltage range of 2.2-16 V. The breakout board has a 0.1" pin spacing making it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1" perfboards.

This tiny triple-axis accelerometer is a basic carrier board for the Freescale MMA7361L XYZ-axis accelerometer, a great low-g sensor with analog voltage outputs, adjustable sensitivity (±1.5 g or ±6 g), and a 0g-detect digital output that signals when the board is in free-fall. Our breakout board has the form factor of a 10-pin DIP package, which makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1" perfboards, and the unit is smaller than competing products, all at a lower price. The board operates from 2.2 to 3.6 V.

This sensor is a carrier/breakout board for the ST L3GD20 three-axis gyroscope, which measures the angular rates of rotation about the pitch (x), roll (y), and yaw (z) axes. Angular velocity measurements with a configurable range of ±250°/s, ±500°/s, or ±2000°/s can be read through a digital I²C or SPI interface. The board has a 3.3 V linear regulator and integrated level-shifters that allow it to work over an input voltage range of 2.5–5.5 V, and the 0.1″ pin spacing makes it easy to use with standard solderless breadboards and 0.1″ perfboards.
