Arduino Modulino® Movement

Arduino Modulino® Movement is a compact, plug-and-play motion-sensing module designed for rapid prototyping and educational projects. Built around the LSM6DSOXTR 6-axis inertial measurement unit (IMU), the module combines a 3-axis accelerometer and 3-axis gyroscope to deliver precise motion tracking in a small, modular form factor. With Qwiic and 5-pin connectors, the Modulino Movement integrates easily into Arduino and third-party ecosystems, enabling seamless experimentation with gesture recognition, orientation detection, and activity monitoring. Ideal for robotics, wearable tech, and interactive systems, the Modulino Movement simplifies motion-based design with reliable performance and minimal setup.
