A very compact sensor board with 9 degrees of freedom is called the 9DOF Sensor stick. It consists of the ITG-3200 gyro, the HMC5843 magnetometer, and the ADXL345 accelerometer. The “stick” contains a mounting hole for securing it to your project and a straightforward I2C interface. The board is also only 0.036″ thick (0.093″ total), making it simple to attach in almost any application.
For this batch, the board had a problem. There is a wire that corrects the mistake since we neglected to provide a trace. Please review the images. A new revision is currently available that adds this missing trace. But if you don’t mind the “greenwire” patch, you can purchase this board for less money, and it will function.
The global 9 DoF sensor stick market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
A 9 Degrees of Freedom IMU that is simple to use is the SparkFun 9DoF Sensor Stick. The LSM9DS1 motion-sensing system-on-chip, which is also used in the SparkFun 9DoF IMU Breakout, is skillfully utilised by the Sensor Stick.
Three-axis magnetometer, gyroscope, and accelerometer are all contained within. Even though the onboard LSM9DS1 has a digital interface, it is adaptable. The amount of broken-out pins, with the Sensor Stick having only four for quick setup and ease of use, is the major difference between the two boards, other than the smaller 0.9′′x0.4′′ footprint.
The LSM9DS1 is one of a select few ICs that can simultaneously measure three important aspects of motion: angular velocity, acceleration, and heading. These three characteristics can be measured to great advantage.
