Specification
Highlights
HWT905’s scientific name is AHRS IMU sensor. A sensor measures 3-axis angle, angular velocity, acceleration and magnetic field. HWT905 is employed where the highest measurement accuracy is required.
Its strength lies in the algorithm which can calculate three-axis angle accurately.
Robust MEMS designs and high performance in harsh environment
Ground breaking bias stability, low noise level and good vibration robustness
Persued for best data accuracy and stability: WTMOTION patented zero-bias automatic detection calibration algorithm and R&D dynamic fusion algorithm outperforms traditional accelerometer sensor

Data output frequency:0.2-200Hz
Baud Rate: 4800-961200 (adjustable)
Working Temperature: -40℃ ~ +85℃
Output Content: 3-axis Acceleration+Angle+Angular Velocity+Magnetic Field+Quaternion
Range: Acceleration (±6g), Gyroscope (±2000°/s), Magnet Field (±4900µT), Angle (X, Z-axis: ±180°, Y ±90°)

This accelerometer works as info provided by manufacturer. Really easy to setup and it has excellent sensitivity and performance. The only thing doesn't work is when you try to run a data file saved or try to convert this data; but it save data in txt format and you can manipulate it whatever you want!

Edit:
Tech support did get back to me (the listed tech support e-mail is no
longer monitored). The issue, according to tech support, is that the
HT905 that was sold requires 9-36V input. If you see "RS232" on the
back, that is what it implies. They indicated they will exchange it at
no cost, through Amazon, for the one I want. I wish the item listing
would present the specifications more precisely upfront.
The
device seemed to be solid construction & I was looking forward to
using a robust outdoor IMU for our project. I would say the
documentation on their website is 'fair' (maybe 2-3 -stars); the
software utilities work differently than described in the documentation.
However, after unpackaging I noticed that the cable strain grommet
mount on the IMU case side appears to be 'crooked'. I tried the sensor
with their recommended RS232-TLL USB converter device. I could never get
any interpretable data from it on any platform, with or without their
software that can be downloaded for the device. I e-mailed them a couple
times for help and never got any response (they are not in US). I am
wondering if it was even tested in the factory before shipping. I wish I
could return it. I would stay away from these, or similar products from
WIT-MOTION since I'm not convinced there is good QC for these
particular sensors. Because of these issues I give it 1 'star'.
