MGS Angular Rate and Acceleration Sensors

Angular Rate & Acceleration Sensors

The measurement of angular velocity is based on the generally known principle of the Coriolis Effect. Thereby a second oscillation is overlaid on an oscillating ring structure by rotation (the rotary movement to be measured). The signal is measured using differential measurement then electronically conditioned is directly proportional to the rotation within the measuring range. The output signal measured in mV thus corresponds to the angular velocity in °/s.

mg-sensor offers 1-axis and 3-axis ARS sensors, a combined 6-axis ARS, and an acceleration sensor model.
