MicroStrain 3DM-CV5-AR, By HBK (USA)
The MicroStrain 3DM®CV5-AR is the smallest and lightest industrial attitude reference available. It features a fully calibrated and temperature compensated triaxial accelerometer and gyroscope to achieve the optimum combination of measurement qualities under all dynamic conditions.
The 3DM-CV5-AR is designed to balance cost and performance, and is ideally suited for a wide range of applications, including platform stabilization, balancing robots, antenna pointing, and usage monitoring.

The 3DM-CV5 family of industrial-grade, board-level inertial sensors provides a wide range of triaxial inertial measurements, computed attitude, and navigation solutions.
The Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) includes direct measurement of acceleration, angular rate, Delta-theta, and Delta-velocity. Compensation options include automatic compensation for magnetic anomalies, gyro and accelerometer noise, and noise effects. In models that include computed outputs, sensor measurements are processed through and auto-adaptive estimation filter algorithm to produce high accuracy computed outputs under dynamic conditions. The computed outputs vary between models and can include roll, pitch, and yaw. All sensors are fully temperature-compensated and calibrated over the operating temperature. Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technology allows for highly accurate, small, lightweight devices.
SensorConnect software is a user friendly program for device configuration. MIP Monitor (MicroStrain Inertial Protocol) can also be used. Both packages provide for device configuration, live data monitoring, and recording. Alternatively, the MIP Data Communications Protocol is available for development of custom interfaces and easy OEM integration.
The sensor operates independent of computer platform, operating system, or coding language.
