Sensing platforms use Epson’s QMEMS and semiconductor technologies
The multifunction sensor evaluation units in the E Series perform a variety of sensing tasks. They have a six-axis sensor, which consists of three Epson gyroscopes that provide high accuracy and stability (±1,000 º/s) on three axes and a triaxial accelerometer with a dynamic range of ±6 G, a triaxial geomagnetic sensor, and a pressure sensor. These evaluation units are available with either a ZigBee6 or a USB interface for easy connection to a PC. They also come with an accessory board that can be used to freely expand the interfaces as well as a power source for use in an even wider range of evaluation environments.
The M Series consists of more compact and even easier-to-use sensor evaluation modules with specialized sensor functions. There are two models in the M Series: the S7U4E002002, a highly accurate motion sensor with six degrees of freedom, and the S7U4E002003, a position sensor with a GPS receiver. Specialized for a single function and sporting a compact design, each of these modules can easily be built into portable, hand-held evaluation equipment. A micro-USB interface board (sold separately) is also available for performing evaluations in a PC environment.
