The MV5-AR is an industrial grade IMU/tilt sensor that brings a new level of precision to measurements of dynamic inclination, acceleration and angular rate in challenging environments such as those encountered by heavy-duty construction, off-highway, agriculture, and trucking industries.
The MV5-AR utilizes the power of a sophisticated Auto-Adaptive Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to remove errors associated with vibration, sudden linear motions, and quake, resulting in a true reading of inclination under all conditions.
Its power and mounting flexibility make it a single-part solution for a variety of vehicle applications.
This version of the MV5-AR utilizes CANopen protocol.
