10 DOF IMU Sensor Module With Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Magnetometer, and Barometric Pressure Sensor

The Fermion 10 DOF IMU Sensor Breakout is a compact and cost-effective inertial measurement unit designed for advanced motion sensing, navigation, orientation tracking, and environmental monitoring applications. The module integrates four high-performance sensors, including the ADXL345 3-axis accelerometer, ITG3205 3-axis gyroscope, VCM5883L 3-axis magnetometer, and BMP280 barometric pressure sensor. Together, these sensors provide a complete 10 Degrees of Freedom sensing solution for accurately measuring motion, rotation, direction, altitude, and atmospheric pressure.

Designed for robotics, drones, navigation systems, balancing platforms, and human-computer interaction applications, the module delivers stable and accurate sensor data in a compact form factor. An onboard low-noise LDO regulator supports a wide input voltage range of 3V to 8V, making the module directly compatible with Arduino and other popular development platforms. The integrated mounting holes simplify installation while ensuring reliable operation in mobile and embedded systems.
