This sensor is based on the latest MEMS technology, which is highly adaptive to various applications.
Real-time data logging, maximum sensitivity and automatic factory calibration ensure that the sensor
will fit your system proprely.

Can I log data remotely using the VMU931?


Yes, this might be possible using the Raspberry Pi Zero W board, for instance. The board costs
only $10 USD, and it has a micro SD card slot and built-in Wifi/Bluetooth transmission.

Does the VMU931 have on-board memory?


No. However, you can log data remotely using the Raspberry Pi Zero W board.

What is the maximum output data rate of the VMU931?


Some types of data (quaternions, Euler angles, and headings) limit the output rate of the
VMU931 to 200 Hz when activated. They must all be deactivated to attain an output rate of
1000 Hz.

Do I need the VMU Reader?


Yes, if you want the sensor data to display automatically. There is no need to develop your
own API or data logging tools.

What formats can you record the data in?


You can use the VMU Reader to export recorded data in two available formats (.txt or .csv).

Can multiple VMU931 sensors be added together in parallel?


Yes, the newest release of the VMU Reader supports multi-channel data acquisition.
