Fiber Optic Gyro?
-
Hello, I'm building a camera gimbal that will use a Fiber Optic Gyro (FOG) for the IMU. FOGs are awesome!! Best stabilization money can buy. I'm wondering if the SimpleBGC controller can accept position information from the KVH DSP-1760. Do you guys have any thoughts, comments or suggestions? Thanks!

Hello!
Regarding electronics, it is not hard to connect this FOG to CAN_IMU module - it has free UART port and can be used as an interface to this gyro. You need to add only RS422-to-TTL converter to get 3.3V logic level on Rx and Tx, and +9V from a separate source (CAN_IMU has +5V option only).
You can use "Extended", "CAN_MCU" or "Pro" controllers which support CAN_IMU module.
From the software side, we can discuss adding support of this gyro to our firmware. Write request to our helpdesk if you decide to continue.

What is the price of the DSP-1760?

Have you end up building it? I am considering this imu as well. Does it really improve stab performance or drift only? Thx
