TT  VERY LOW BIAS (0.005°/SEC.)
TT COMMANDED TO ANGLE TT Quick Data Capture to Laptop


Arrow3i leverages advanced MEMS Gyro technology:
Measures angular displacements up to  ±1023° with 0.03° resolution. 
Three bias compensation techniques achieve very low bias drift vs. time. 
A Zero or Reference position IR detector provides both recalibration of a zero or reference position and removes accumulated bias. 
SPI BUS outputs rate signal and the computed difference between a Commanded-To and the current measured angle supporting a controller loop implementation. 
Operates Instantly and data can be captured to a laptop using inexpensive USB Logic Analyzer
