Tactical Grade GPS Navigation Sensor, Aerospace Package.

Contact us for details
Description

The 3DM®RQ1-GPS/INS is a compact, ruggedized, aerospace tactical-grade navigation and IMU solution with integrated GPS and magnetometers, high noise immunity, and exceptional performance. It takes advantage of some of the latest MEMs sensor technology combined with LORD’s 4th generation precision calibration and temperature compensation capability and combines it with a custom made Kalman Filter to deliver capabilities that rival units that cost many times more.

 

Use Cases

Antenna-Pointing and Platform Stabilization

Stable, low-noise, low latency, and linear MEMS gyros and accelerometers result in accurate and stable attitude tracking

Dual on-board processors, and auto-adaptive Kalman Filter algorithms unload host systems from complex calculations

DO-160G environmental rating required for demanding aerospace applications

Extremely reliable performance in high-vibration and shock environments

Fully calibrated and temperature compensated guarantees stable performance in environments with high levels of fluctuation

Robotic Navigation

Low-noise, low-drift MEMS gyros and accelerometers result in accurate and robust PVA (Position, Velocity, Attitude) outputs over harsh terrain

Auto-adaptive Kalman Filter algorithms provide exceptional dynamic performance

Exceptional IMU performance and robust anomaly rejection by the EKF aids navigation under GNSS outage or denied environments

Fully calibrated and temperature compensated IMUs provide stable performance in demanding environments

Drone Navigation

Low-noise, low-drift MEMS gyros and accelerometers result in accurate and robust PVA (Position, Velocity, Attitude) outputs during sharp turns, high winds, etc.

Exceptional IMU performance and robust anomaly rejection by the EKF aids navigation under GNSS outage or denied environments

Fully calibrated and temperature compensated guarantees stable performance in outdoor operating temperature ranges even with high levels of fluctuation
