1042_0 Phidget Spatial 3/3/3 Basic
The 1042_0 PhidgetSpatial 3/3/3 combines the functionality of a 3-axis compass, a 3-axis gyroscope, and a 3-axis accelerometer all in one convenient package.
It is an inexpensive alternative to the 1044 - PhidgetSpatial Precision 3/3/3, and is ideal for applications where it's more important to know the general motion of an object rather than the precise amounts.
The 1042 could be used to:
- Track whether an object is moving, and in which direction
- Detect the presence of nearby movement or vibration
- Track the orientation of a stationary object relative to the earth's gravitational pull and the direction relative to magnetic north
Product Features:
- 3-Axis Compass, 3-Axis Gyroscope, 3-Axis Accelerometer
- Inexpensive
- Connects directly to a computer's USB Port
Includes:
- A 3018 - Mini-USB Cable 180cm
- A Hardware mounting kit (4 nuts and bolts, 4 plastic spacers)
