Parallax altimeter

It will give extremely accurate, altitude, pressure, and temperature readings. At RobotShop, you will find everything about robotics. This module will detect altitude, barometric pressure and temperature.

Please see our new KickStart pages at the Parallax Learning Center: Altimeter. You may also download the program examples below.

Here we are with yet another module from Parallax Electronics!

There are few things you need to check: Can you detect your sensor. If you can then read datasheet for commands. If not make sure hardware and software are working. For software you will need to install smbus library. If software is installed then check your hardware make sure . Propeller Activity Board WX Propeller Activity Board WX.

Weather stations predict the change in weather by measuring the relative atmospheric pressure change over time. High pressure means “good weather”, low pressure . The SFlaser altimeter is ideal for automated landings, precision hovering and terrain following. The SFis directly compatible with the Pixhawk and other flight controllers. Popularity, Date Release Price, Product ID. Altimeter modules for accurate, altitude, pressure and temperature sensing.

Fewer mistakes will occur if the altimeter is well designed in graduations and numbering, is well illuminate and is conven- ient to use. An optical reading system can minimize errors of observation through reduced parallax and increased magnification. Position your outdoor robot in space using GPS sensors, barometers and altimeters.

LPS25H pressure sensor for altimeter and barometer data.

Battery voltage monitor with low-battery alarm. Piezospeaker for status alerts and alarms. The lightweight, compact LightWare SF11-C is an ideal laser altimeter for UAVs, such as the ELEV-vQuadcopter Kit.

Its time-of-flight system makes accurate distance measurements that are not affected by spee win changes in barometric . Altitude, Pressure, Temperature. Others have tested this module . Both Sensors are available from Parallax. To connect these two devices you need the I2C interface on the Fraunchpad Pin 1. The pull up resistors are already on the .
