This is just an idea, and not a well formed one, but would it be possible to send all the IMU sensor data from a quadcopter UAV to a remote ground station or laptop that's running an autopilot program, then send motor commands back? Its the same…
"After looking though the board schematics it looks like the x acel = pin 0, y acel = pin 1, z acel = pin 2, z gyro = pin 3, x gyro = pin 6, y gyro = pin 7 where x is pitch, y is roll, and z is yaw.
Hello, can someone tell me which sensor is read by which analog pin in the ADC section of the ArduIMU code?For example, it looks like the pitch accelerometer is on pin 0 and the variable mapped to the pitch accelerometer is AN[0]. I can't figure…
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3JLkMAlfDdEThis is just a test with two motors mounted on beam with a pivot in the middle (like a seesaw). An ArduIMU is in the middle sending orientation information to the NXT and the NXT sends motor commands…
I have two identical pairs of ESC & brushless motor combinations. The ESC's spin both motors at different speeds for the same duty cycle. I'm using an arduino and the analogWrite() function to send PWM signals to each ESC. An input of 127 equals…
"My application is an indoor quadcopter. I'm not going to use GPS and I'm not planning any high speed aerobatics. Would I run into any of the limitations of the CHRobotics AHRS? If I use the ArduIMU, would the lack of centripetal acceleration…"
Does anyone know of a complete IMU solution that can "fuse" the data from the accelerometers and gyros onboard in order to output an absolute angle for roll and pitch? This would mean the main micro controller wouldn't have to continuously…
