MTi-620 VRU

An industry-leading development platform

Icon of four caret marks in a diamond shape
Sensor fusion algorithms

Meet the highest standard in vertical reference units (VRUs). The MTi-620 features sensor fusion algorithms that compute 3D orientation data based on a gravity reference frame: drift-free roll, pitch, and accurate, unreferenced yaw.

Easy to integrate

It’s lightweight and robust, as well as cost-effective and easy to integrate in your choice of two ways: either with the header facing down, directly mounted on a PCB, or as a standalone, with a flat cable for communication. The MTi-620 is part of the MTi 600-series and allows seamless integration with your application, with native CAN support.
