MicroStrain 3DM-CX7 Documentation Center
Product Description
The MicroStrain 3DM-CX7 is a high-performance, tactical-grade inertial sensor that combines MEMS inertial sensors with a magnetometer (AHRS only) and pressure sensor (AHRS only) for use in a wide range of applications. Common use cases include unmanned vehicle navigation, robotic control, platform stabilization, motion tracking and analysis, vehicle health monitoring, and device aiming.
Key features
- An adaptive Estimation Filter (EKF) for sensor fusion
- Integrated magnetometer for accurate heading tracking (AHRS only)
- Fully temperature-compensated, tactical-grade IMU, mathematically-aligned to an orthogonal coordinate system
- PPS input/output and external clock synchronization for precision time alignment with external devices
- Event triggering system and low latency data
Internal sensors
- 3-axis accelerometer
- 3-axis gyroscope
- 3-axis magnetometer
- Pressure altimeter
| Name | Part Number | Description |
| 3DM-CX7-AHRS | 6701-9960 | attitude and magnetometer-aided heading |
| 3DM-CX7-AR* | 6700-9960 | attitude and relative heading |
*Features requiring a magnetometer are not supported by the 3DM-CX7-AR.
