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
