Re: Sensors

$40 and an Arduino will get you a 3 axis accelerometer and Gyro that can give you pitch, yaw and roll. As was mentioned the yaw is going to drift over time. 6 axis IMU's have improved allot. Our team is going to work with them this fall. Maybe we can get field centric drive working. If we could only firure out how to get a magnetometer working on the bot, neat things could be done. All those magnetic fields put the damper on them. An IMU is what is needed for good bridge balancing.
