navX MXP Robotics Navigation Sensor

navX MXP 3.0 combines a 9-axis sensor (3-axis accelerometers, gyroscopes and magnetometers) with sophisticated data fusion, motion processing and sensor calibration algorithms.

Key specifications include:
High-accuracy pose (yaw/pitch/roll), with minimal yaw drift of ~1 degree per minute
Tilt-corrected absolute compass heading with magnetic disturbance detection
9-axis heading fusing pose and magnetically-valid compass heading data
Omnimount technology allows installation in various orientations, including horizontal, vertical and even upside-down.
In addition, the new navX MXP 3.0 firmware and library features as an upgrade for our existing customers that enable integration of navX-MXP with vision processing, as well as increasing the update rate to a blazing-fast 200Hz.

Even in electro-magnetically challenging environments, the 9-axis heading combination of inertial and magnetically-valid compass heading data (e.g., before motors are energized, or when the robot is at rest) enable tracking of a robots absolute heading.

Because navX MXP is compliant with the National Instruments Custom Electronics Port (MXP) specification you can expand your roboRIO with additional Digital I/O, Analog I/O and Communications Interfaces.

navX MXP is designed for plug-n-play installation into an FRC roboRIO robotics control system: it connects to the roboRIO MXP connector for both power and data. Additionally, libraries and example source code for easy integration into the FRC roboRIO
