IMU Sensor

The IMU Sensor reference design is an accelerometer/gyro/temperature combo sensor paired with an STM32 ARM cortex-M0 microcontroller. The microcontroller simplifies the sensor data and makes it compatible with ARC. A unique feature of this design is that it connects directly to a visual interface and automatically outputs pitch and roll angles in ARC.
