ADIS1657X Series IMU for Robotics
One effective solution is the ADIS1657X series of
inertial measurement units (IMUs). This product
family delivers the precision found in much larger,
more expensive sensors within a compact, scalable
package. By integrating low noise and low interim bias
stability across various environmental conditions,
the ADIS1657X is highly suitable for use in humanoid
robots and other demanding applications.
In humanoid robots, for instance, the many moving
joints driven by servos can create challenging out-
of-band high-frequency vibrations, while metal parts
impacting surfaces generate broadband shocks.
The ADIS1657X's vibration rectification capability
reduces the impact on accuracy, making it a suitable
development tool for the robotics revolution.
As industrial automation continues to advance,
robotics and autonomous machines will play a central
role. With the assistance of sensor technologies like
the ADIS1657X, companies can remain at the forefront
of this transformation, driving efficiency, flexibility, and
competitiveness in the years ahead.
