DS-GYRO highlights

USB 3.0 interface

DS-GYRO3 is a USB 3 type C device. USB connector provides locking bolts for a fast and reliable data transfer to the bundled DewesoftX software. The DS-GYRO3 device is powered from the same USB 3.0 port.

CAN bus output

DS-GYRO3 can be configured to output the data via the CAN bus output port. Once configured and initialized the unit can operate autonomously without connection to DewesoftX software. Ready for third-party integration.

High sampling rate

The DS-GYRO3 provides data of up to 1800 samples per second. The data is streamed straight to the connected computer running DewesoftX software or an external CAN bus device.

High-performance sensors

DS-GYRO3 has a built-in non-ITAR, micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) IMU that includes MEMS gyroscopes, accelerometers, and magnetometers, making it a small 9 degrees of freedom (DOF) IMU device.

Robust, compact design

The DS-GYRO devices are very small and compact and they are built in rugged chassis with IP68 environmental protection.

Software included

Every Dewesoft data acquisition system is bundled with award-winning DewesoftX data acquisition software. The software is easy to use but very rich and deep in functionality. All software updates are free forever with no hidden licensing or yearly maintenance fees.

Dewesoft quality and 7-year warranty

Enjoy our industry-leading 7-year warranty. Our data acquisition systems are made in Europe, utilizing only the highest build quality standards. We offer free and customer-focused technical support. Your investment into the Dewesoft solutions is protected for years ahead.

DS-GYRO3
High-performance inertial measurement unit (IMU)

DS-GYRO3 is a high-performance Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) based Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU). With its rugged housing and industry-standard communication protocols it is designed to meet the needs of various navigational applications. 

The unit by itself sends standard inertial measurement data (Pitch, Roll, and Yaw), an additional magnetometer, and diagnostic information.

The device provides two data interfaces:

  • USB 3.0 type C for PC connection running DewesoftX data acquisition software.

  • CAN interface for 3rd-party integrations.

  • The DS-GYRO3 device is powered by the same USB cable.

By connecting the unit to a USB port of a PC running DewesoftX data acquisition software, the data can be displayed, processed, and stored in real-time. Additionally, the DewesoftX software calculates the unit orientation from built-in inertial sensors with an extended Kalman filter (EKF) algorithm.

DS-GYRO3 provides an update rate of 1800 Hz and is in general more accurate that the DS-GYRO1 device.

Robust design in a small package

DS-GYRO3 device is built in a very robust and small housing with IP68-grade environmental protection. The device is waterproof, shockproof, dustproof, and ready to be used in any condition. The device can operate in extreme temperature conditions from -40°C to +85°C. The device also corresponds to the MIL-STD-810G and IEC 60068-2-27 specifications.

  • Size: 82,61 x 54,7 x 30,1 mm [3.3 x 2.2 x 1.2 inch]

  • Weight: 55 grams [1.94 ounces]

Built with accurate internal sensors

DS-GYRO3 is a non-ITAR, MEMS-based IMU device. It includes several inertial sensors that provide 9 degrees of freedom (DOF) movement in a small package. This is achieved with three types of built-in sensors:

  1. MEMS-based gyroscope: ±490 degrees per second in all axes.

  2. MEMS-based accelerometer: ±16g in all axes.

  3. Magnetometer

DS-GYRO1
Cost-efficient inertial measurement unit (IMU)

DS-GYRO1 is a cost-efficient inertial measurement unit (IMU) with a great cost-performance ratio. It also features rugged housing with IP67 environmental protection. DS-GYRO1 can meet the needs of various navigational applications. 

The unit by itself sends standard inertial measurement data (Pitch, Roll, and Yaw), an additional magnetometer, and diagnostic information.

The device provides a USB data interface:

  • USB 2.0 for PC connection running DewesoftX data acquisition software.

  • The DS-GYRO1 is powered via the same USB 2.0 connection.

  • The USB cable is connected and secured to the unit with a round locking.

DS-GYRO1 offers an update rate of up to 500 Hz and an acceleration range of 2g, 4g, and 16g.

DewesoftX data acquisition software included

DS-GYRO devices include our award-winning DewesoftX software. Setting up DS-GYRO devices is very simple and painless. Once the device is connected the software will show all available channels (parameters) from the device.

3d model widget

A DewesoftX 3D model widget allows visualizing the yaw, pitch, and roll of the 3D model of your vehicles (cars, planes, boats) connected to the DS-GYRO channels. When in Measure or Analyze mode the model will change the position and orientation accordingly to the DS-GYRO channels that are assigned to the widget.

Perfect for various applications

DS-GYRO inertial measurement units can be used in many testing applications.
