6 Degree-of-Freedom MEMS IMU / GPS Autopilot Module
The PhoenixAX is a six degree-of-freedom IMU & GPS navigation module specifically designed for autonomous vehicle research. The PhoenixAX has tri-axial MEMS based angular rate and accelerometer sensors with a full featured GPS receiver on a single board. The PhoenixAX also features on-board static/dynamic pressure sensors for aircraft applications and temperature sensor for compensation. Accelerometer options for ±1.5g, ±2g & ±10g's. Angular rate gyro sensitivities of ±150 or ±300°/sec. The PhoenixAX has six gain stages for accelerometers and rate gyros. Standard systems are factory set for unity gain. High performance 5th order elliptic filters on all IMU channels configurable from 1-100Hz. Advanced IIR filtering and kalman filtering available. The PhoenixAX includes data pump software which digitizes and reports sensor data via a logic level serial channel. Intended for user programmed applications such as UAV stability, control and navigation, the PhoenixAX is compact and low cost. O-Navi has an extensive line of development tools available for the PhoenixAX.
