Compass Module
The compass module is a joint project between Liquidware and Modern Device and is available here as an assembled unit. Thanks! -Justin
This is a fully integrated compass module that combines the Honeywell HMC6352 2-axis magneto-resistive sensors with the required analog and digital support circuits, microprocessor and algorithms for heading computation.
It comes assembled with a 4-pin male header soldered on.
The Compass Sensor is fully integrated with the Antipasto Arduino IDE and can provide compass headings in degrees over Arduino serial.
Applications- Homebrew virtual reality & gaming systems
- Robotics and dead reckoning navigation systems
- Compassing & outdoor sports
- GPS confirmation
- Antenna positioning
