MPU6050 3-Axis Gyroscope/Accelerometer Sensor Module

MPU6050 is intended towards low cost, low power and high performance demanding wearables, smartphones and tablets. It combines a MEMS 3 axis accelerometer and 3 axis gyroscope sensor on the same silicon die to measure acceleration, orientation, velocity, displacement or any other motion-related parameter. It also includes a Digital Motion Processor to take the processing load away from the microcontroller thus increasing the accuracy and computational power. This IMU6050 sensor also has auxiliary I2C pins which when connected to other sensors like 3 axis Magnetometer will give complete 9 axis Motion Data output. It is very easy to interface with popular Microcontrollers like Arduino and Raspberry Pi. It can be used to control Self Balancing Robots, RC cars, Drones, Quadcopters, Unmanned Vehicles etc. The sensor is also refered by its part number GY521 Sensor.
