GY-521 MPU-6050 3-Axis Gyroscope and Accelerometer Module

Add motion and orientation sensing to a prototype with this GY-521 module built around the MPU-6050 sensor. The module combines a three-axis gyroscope and a three-axis accelerometer.

Motion sensing for embedded prototypes

• ✅ ✅ Measure two kinds of motion input — the gyro and accelerometer provide complementary sensor data.
• ✅ ✅ Use a compact breakout board — the module format is designed for integration into an electronics project.
• ✅ ✅ Build around the MPU-6050 platform — the model is identified in the product title.

Use the module in a project that needs motion data, such as a controller or sensor experiment. Your controller code must read and interpret the sensor output; the board alone does not provide a finished display or application.

The listing provides limited electrical and interface details. Confirm supply voltage, pinout, library support and board dimensions against the version you receive before connecting it to your controller.

Specifications: GY-521 breakout module; MPU-6050; three-axis gyroscope and three-axis accelerometer. One module is listed.

Add the module to your compatible motion-sensing build.
