Implementation of Mpu6050 6 DOF Gyro Accelerometer IMU as Auto Correction Direction in Ship Weapon System

The stability of gun shots on warships has a very important role in the accuracy of the shooting results to support the operations of the Warship. The problem that often arises is the lack of stability in gun shooting on ships. At present one of the data sources to maintain stability in gun shooting is from the gyro compass so that it can overcome ship shocks by waves either shaking or bobbing. However, because the gyro compas works on a mechanical system, there is often wear and tear on the gyro compas component as the rotating clock increases. Besides that the cost of maintenance and maintenance of the gyro compass is quite expensive, if the tool will be reconditioned to restore its optimal capabilities.

Accuracy enhancements are needed in addition to streamlining the cost of maintenance and maintenance of the system (Gyro Compass). The purpose of this study is to make the implementation concept of the IMU MPU 6050 6 DOF Accelerometer as an Auto Correction Direction on the Ship Armament System to obtain better stability, more efficient and effective.
