mhpro.net 3 axis gyroscope sensor – Iota LPF v1.00 Version 1.0

3axisgyroscopethatactaspotentiometer!

Replaceanypotentiometerwiththismotioncontroldeviceinyourproject!

This3axismotionsensorgyroscopeallowsyoutotrackthemovementoftheheadorarm

andconvertitinanalogsignalsoutputs,exactlylikeapotentiometer.

ThissystemhasbeenspeciallydesignedforDoItYourself(DIY)inelectronicsorrobotics

forstudents whowant to explore electronicsorwho wanttheirownsystem, butareless

comfortablewithadvancedprogrammingofaccelerometers.Youcanuseoneormoreaxis

(X,Y,andZ)independently.Accordingtoyourneeds.

More technical

Thegyroscopeoutputsanalogsignals:0toinputpowervoltage(5-12volts)or0-3.3volts.

Yourchoice.Andindependentlyforeachaxis.Whenturningon,theXandYaxiswilloutput

2.5volts(incaseof5voltsinput)andwilltendto0voltifyourotatethegyroscopeoneway

(-90degree)andtendto5voltstheotherway(90degrees).TheZaxiswilldothesamebut

with+-180degreesofrotation.

3 axis gyroscope that act as potentiometer! Replace any potentiometer with this motion control device in your project! This 3 axis motion sensor gyroscope allows you to track the movement of the head or arm and convert it in analog signals outputs, exactly like a potentiometer.
PAGE 2
Connector pinout Note: The two ground contacts are internally connected. One is normally used for power and the other as the reference voltage for your project. You must have a common ground for your project. Limitation: The gyro outputs must be connected to the input ports of your hardware. They can not drive LEDs or other electronic components directly. Centering the Z axis You only have to momentary press the centering button to set the output à 50% for the Z axis.

Configurable outputs Image 4 Image 5 Direction of increment If you need to revert the signals, simply shortcut these little jumpers independently of each axis (see image 4). Output level By default, the signals output level is 0 volt to supply voltage. If you need, the output can be 0 to 3.3 volts, even if supply is between 5 to 12 volts. You can configure it with the JP6 jumper (see image 5).
PAGE 4
Orientation Here is the axis orientation. Example Here is an example to connect the gyroscope to an Arduino Uno. Simply use the AnalogRead example sketch to read the signal of the outputs. mhpro.net 3 axis gyroscope sensor – Iota LPF v1.00 Version 1.
