GY-521 MPU-6050 6DOF Motion Sensor Module – 3-Axis Accelerometer + 3-Axis Gyroscope with Gold-Plated PCB for Arduino & Robotics
GY-521 MPU-6050 6DOF Motion Sensor Module – 3-Axis Accelerometer + 3-Axis Gyroscope with Gold-Plated PCB for Arduino & Robotics
The GY-521 Module features the powerful MPU-6050 sensor — a compact and efficient 6 Degrees of Freedom (6DOF) motion tracking module that combines a 3-axis accelerometer and a 3-axis gyroscope in one chip. Designed for precision motion sensing, orientation tracking, and gesture detection, this module is ideal for Arduino, Raspberry Pi, robotics, drones, wearable tech, and embedded motion control applications.
Built on a high-quality gold-plated PCB, the GY-521 ensures stable signal transmission, corrosion resistance, and long-term durability. It communicates using the I2C protocol, allowing for easy integration with a wide range of microcontrollers.
The MPU-6050 also includes a Digital Motion Processor (DMP) capable of offloading complex motion processing tasks, such as calculating pitch, roll, and yaw, which reduces the computational burden on the host microcontroller.
