Inertial Measurement Unit: BMI088

High performance. Optimized for drones and robots.

BMI088

IMU combining accelerometer and gyroscope

The BMI088 is a high-performance 6-axis inertial sensor that allows for highly accurate measurement of orientation and detection of motion along three orthogonal axes. Consisting of a 16-bit digital, triaxial accelerometer and a 16-bit digital, triaxial gyroscope, the BMI088 is unique in the class of high-performance IMUs used in harsh environments such as those ones in drones and robotics applications. Apart from its high vibration robustness, the excellent temperature stability of BMI088 helps reducing design efforts and costs on a system level.

Applications and solutions

Man standing in the mountains flying a drone.

Drones

Drones are becoming more and more ubiquitous. Our sensor and software solutions stabilize the drone’s altitude and enable orientation and flight control as well as gimbals for pin-sharp photos!
