SKU 2846-MPU6050EAN 8219671060318Item type: Assembled,

Description

Small board based on the InvenSense MPU-6050 sensor, featuring a 3-axis MEMS gyroscope and a 3-axis MEMS accelerometer. Standard I²C communication protocol. By combining the signals from both sensors, students and hobbyists can easily incorporate into their projects or robots measurements of roll, pitch, and inclination (X, Y, Z). The board is supplied fully assembled and tested.
Applications: motion detection in games, augmented reality, electronic image stabilization (EIS), optical image stabilization (OIS), pedestrian navigation devices, etc. The package also includes 1 straight 8-pin strip and 1 90° 8-pin strip.
