February 1st, 2016 – Mouser Electronics, Inc. is now stocking MTi 1-series motion tracking modules from Xsens. These 3D sensor modules incorporate the latest in advanced sensor fusion and miniature MEMS technologies to offer complete, self-contained motion tracking for high-volume industrial and consumer applications. With a dynamic accuracy of 1 degree root mean squared (RMS) for roll and pitch, the MTi 1-series are among the most accurate 3D motion trackers in their class.
The Xsens MTi 1-series modules are available from Mouser Electronics in three configurations: MTi-1 inertial measurement unit (IMU), MTi-2 vertical reference unit (VRU), or MTi-3 attitude and heading reference system (AHRS). All three configurations output inertial and magnetic field data; the MTi-2 and MTi-3 modules add acceleration, roll/pitch, and heading tracking data; and the MTi-3 module also includes referenced yaw data. The modules’ industry-standard communication protocols (I2C, SPI, UART) allow engineers to customize data, frequency, and output format, while the modules’ onboard processing reduces the load on the application processor to lower the overall power consumption of the end system.
Mouser also stocks the Xsens MTi 1-Series Development Kit, which includes a mounted MTi-3 AHRS module and a full-featured MT Software Suite with logging and visualization options, intuitive configuration windows and possibilities to export data for use in other programs. The included software development kit contains source code for communication and libraries for data processing.
