Key Points
• IMUs measure a body's specific force,
angular rate, and magnetic field,
combining data from accelerometers,
gyroscopes, and magnetometers.
• IMUs are crucial in applications
requiring precise navigation or
autonomy, such as vehicles and
industrial equipment.
• Advances in MEMS have reduced the
cost and size of IMUs, broadening their
applications.
• Murata offers IMUs that can operate
in harsh environments, provide stable
and accurate measurements, and
resist shock and vibration in industrial
settings.
