Description

he MicroStrain 3DM-GQ7-GNSS/INS is an all-in-one navigation solution featuring centimeter-level position accuracy. It is our first dual-antenna, RTK enabled INS designed for outstanding performance, even in unpredictable conditions. It is equipped with dual multiband GNSS receivers, low noise and low drift MEMS inertial sensors, and a robust adaptive Kalman filter. When paired with our 3DM-RTK Modem and SensorCloud RTK corrections service, the 3DM-GQ7-GNSS/INS is the best single-vendor RTK navigation solution available.

New All-in-one Navigation Solutions with RTK Modem and SensorCloud RTK Network

The MicroStrain by HBK 3DM-GQ7-GNSS/INS navigation sensor with native RTK capability delivers outstanding performance when you need it most. The multiband RTK combined with SensorCloud RTK network and cellular enabled 3DM-RTK Modem makes this a complete out-of-the-box advanced navigation sensor for drones, unmanned vehicle navigation, wheeled and legged robots and autonomous vehicle applications

 

Use Cases

Robotic Navigation
