Highly Accurate Motion Sensing and Control for Industrial Applications
By: Bob Porooshani, Epson Electronics America Inc.
Until recently, inertial measurement units (IMUs) traditionally have been associated with military uses (for high-end IMUs) or consumer products (for low-end IMUs) but the market place has lacked an IMU that balances high performance and cost sensitivity for industrial applications. The S4E5A0A0 represents a new category of IMU, offering a combination of high accuracy, small size, and low power consumption. more >>
