This gyro module integrates a Raspberry Pi Pico microcontroller with three TMC2300 low-power stepper motor drivers to actuate a 3-axis gimbal using 5V miniature stepper motors. The Pico configures and coordinates each motor channel, enabling controlled rotation of any molecule mounted above the platform. This molecule provides a precise, programmable 3-DOF motion stage for orientation-sensitive designs in order to validate molecule performance or integration.

NSF Relevance

This module provides a controlled rotational platform for evaluating IMU stability, sensor-fusion behavior, and orientation-dependent sensor performance under repeatable conditions. It supports rapid iteration of control software, firmware, and hardware, such as flight control algorithms in the Adom drone reference design, by enabling precise, benchtop validation. This platform also enables rapid and real-time qualification and comparison of existing chips under repeatable and reliable conditions.
