1. DAIMU 101 & 131: PCB-Embeddable Ultra-Lightweight Inertial Measurement Modules Overview

The DAIMU101 and DAIMU131 are two ultra-compact, high-performance industrial-grade MEMS Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs). With dimensions of only 12×12×3.3mm and a weight of just 0.8g, they are recognized as the smallest in the industry and can be directly embedded into PCB boards. They integrate high-precision gyroscopes and accelerometers, support SPI/IIC interfaces, and provide complete algorithm source code for deep customization. The products undergo full temperature range compensation, independent turntable calibration, and rigorous environmental testing, offering excellent shock resistance, vibration tolerance, and magnetic shielding. They operate stably across -40°C to 85°C and are widely used in drones, robots, VR/AR, autonomous driving, and industrial attitude monitoring.
