SDK
ArduPilot Driver & Integration SDK

IMS-AI integrates into ArduPilot as a custom AP_InertialSensor backend — the parallel MEMS array delivers a single fused 6-DOF stream that EKF3 consumes alongside ArduPilot's other sensors (GPS, mag, baro). Output rate is configurable from 200 Hz to 2 kHz over UART (default), with SPI and CAN available for board-level integrations. A standalone C library and a ROS 2 package expose the same protocol for non-ArduPilot stacks.
