Xsens MTi-200 VRU

The MTi-200 VRU from Xsens is a high-performing Vertical Reference Unit (VRU). Its sensors and sensor fusion algorithm measure roll, pitch, and (unreferenced) yaw. The superior, vibration-rejecting gyroscopes – part of the entire MTi 100-series – guarantee high-quality acceleration, and orientation data, even in challenging environments.

Description

Overview

The MTi-200 VRU from Xsens is ruggedly built, with a protective, anodized, IP67 waterproof aluminum housing, waterproof connectors, and special studs for easy mounting and aligning. This all-in-one VRU supports optimized temperature calibration and high-frequency orientation output, while offering configurable output settings for synchronization with any third-party device.

Like the other modules in this series, you can recognize the MTi-200 by its dark-grey/black base plate and the small barometer holes on one side of the casing. The MTi-200 also comes with Active Heading Stabilization (AHS), which further improves the accuracy of heading tracking.

With the MT Software Suite you will get maximum benefit from your MTi-100. The suite contains a specially developed, easy-to-use graphical user interface, complete documentation, and drivers for various operating systems. It also offers example source code and many other useful tools. Among its software programs, you will find:

  • MT Manager (GUI)
  • MT SDK, including programming examples for C, C++, C#, MATLAB, Python, ROS and Nucleo boards
  • Magnetic Field Mapper (MFM) calibration tool, as GUI and SDK
  • Development Kit available
