Description
The MPU-6050 is a 6 direction Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) capable of sensing acceleration and rotational motion in the X, Y, and Z axis. These are ideal for detecting what your project’s current orientation is, how fast it is accelerating, and how much it is changing rotation over time. These types of sensors are key components in autopilot systems found in aircraft and ships, as well as inertial guidance systems in rockets. This specific sensor has adjustable ranges of ±2/±4/±8/±16 g and ±250/±500/±1000/±2000 degrees per second.
