Integration of Micro Electro Mechanical Systems (MEMS)-based Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) for calculating roll, pitch, and yaw is presented in this paper. This paper presents the design of a low-cost IMU for calculating the attitude of an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle. In order to create a cheap inertial measurement unit that includes an accelerometer and gyroscope. Using the expanding microcontroller software environment, sensor integration with a 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope simulates 6 degrees of freedom orientation sensing. An inexpensive hardware implementation of many sensors is now possible thanks to the inclusion of computationally onboard microcontroller software like Arduino, which is used in a variety of aerospace applications.
