Ardu IMU V3+ Binary Output bits

Started May 21, 2012 0 Replies

Hi Guys,I wanted to know how many bits is the data coming out from the IMU v3+, 8 bits or 16 bits? The code below is used to set baud rate, but don't know what the 128 and 16 mean.void setup(){…Continue

Hi guys,The IMU gives out serial data and I want this data to go into a PIC ucontroller. Do I need a RS232 interface circuit (with Max232 chip and stuff) or do I just simply connect the output data…Continue

Hi Guys,I want to control a camera platform using an IMU (V3+). The IMU gives out serial data, and it also has 2 PWM outputs. Does this mean I can connect the two servos (for Pitch and roll) to those…Continue

Hi guys,The IMU gives out serial data and I want this data to go into a PIC ucontroller. Do I need a RS232 interface circuit (with Max232 chip and stuff) or do I just simply connect the output data direct into PIC Tx and Rx pins.Any help would be appreciated!Thanks (In advance),Varinder  See More

"Hi Guys, I was reading the manual for the IMU and it says it gives out serial data. What would I use to transfer that serial data into a PIC16f873a? I know you can get a USB to serial cable but that means I will need to put a USB socket on the IMU…"

Ardu IMU V3+ Loading Code

Hi Guys,I am following the instructions to loading the code onto the ArduIMU v3+, but under the website (http://arduino.cc/en/Guide/Windows#toc1), section 4, where it says downloading the Drivers. is ArduIMU a 'Arduino Uno'? or ' Arduino DuemilanoveNano, or …See More

"Yes, I believe that you can use those PWMs for servo drive - generally you need 16-bit PWM hardware for this. You want a 20ms period and 1-2ms Mark time. The Arduino "Servo" library does this (though I don't know how efficient it is.)"

"Did you use a micro-controller for this gyro-stabilized camera mount? I am working on the same thing and just wonder how the camera mount actually works.  Thanks."
