Note: Latest Pigeon 2.0 hardware update requires a software update. Details available here.

TIP: Pigeon 2.0 can be used with Phoenix Pro!

Pigeon 2.0 is the next evolution in the family of Pigeon IMUs.

With no on-boot calibration or temperature calibration required and dramatic improvement to drift, the Pigeon is the easiest IMU to use yet. 

Features

• Nine Degrees of Freedom (3 Axis Accelerometer, 3 Axis Gyroscope, 3 Axis Magnetometer)
• Full AHRS: Yaw, Pitch, Roll
• Quaternion Output
• Gravity Vector Output
• Boot-up does not require stillness. Get useful heading information as soon as it is powered on.
• Kalman Filter fusion algorithm
• Gyro automatically re-biases after 4 seconds of no-motion
• Temperature Compensation for temperature sensitive components
• Temperature factory-calibrated
• Accelerometer factory-calibrated
• Gyroscope factory-calibrated
• No user-calibration required for accurate 6-axis fusion.
• Mount IMU in any orientation (not limited to horizontal or vertical orientation) - see Hardware User Manual for details.
• Yaw is continuous, ideal for robot heading servos and motion control.
• Wide Input Voltage Range 6V – 28V
• Protection Reverse Input Power Protection
• Polycarbonate housing prevents debris from entering inside device
• One wire lead-pair for power
• Two wire lead-pairs for CAN Bus (3-pin connector, one male, one female) for daisy chaining devices
• Robust bootloader and reliable field-upgrade (no physical button required, no “stuck states” that
requires user intervention)
• Wirelessly check, configure and field-upgrade using roboRIO Wi-Fi and Phoenix Tuner.
• Users can download software API binaries on our reliable Maven server (99.9% reliability)
• Hardware Simulation Support
• Supports CAN bus and CAN FD bus.
