Add motion, direction and orientation sensing to your Arduino project with this all-in-one 9-DOF sensor. Inside the chip are three sensors, one is a classic 3-axis accelerometer, which can tell you which direction is down towards the Earth (by measuring gravity) or how fast the board is accelerating in 3D space. The other is a 3-axis magnetometer that can sense where the strongest magnetic force is coming from, generally used to detect magnetic north. The third is a 3-axis gyroscope that can measure spin and twist. By combining this data you can REALLY orient yourself.

• LSM9DS1 Accelerometer has ±2/±4/±8/±16 g (no ±6 g range).
• LSM9DS1 Magnetometer has ±4/±8/±12/±16 gauss ranges.
• LSM9DS1 gyro have ±245/±500/±2000 dps range
