Position and attitude system knows where
it's at
A new cost-effective precise position and attitude system provides higher performance than either a GPS or inertial system can provide independently.
Inertial Aerosystems has developed a new, cost effective, precise position and attitude system providing higher performance than either a GPS or inertial system can provide independently The system comprises a compact, ring laser gyro inertial measurement unit (IMU) disciplined by a GPS receiver fitted with exclusive firmware which includes multiple Kalman filters

The Inertial Aerosytems RT3000 Vehicle Navigation System makes real-time measurements of vehicle motion, using a full, six axis inertial navigation system, with combined GPS
This innovative system gives uninterrupted position and heading despite the loss or intermittent failure of satellite signals and has fast recovery on recapture of signals.
Simultaneously, outputs of velocity, acceleration, pitch, and roll are continuously computed with ultimate performance when GPS is available.
This versatile system is ideal for system integrators, test house and research laboratories where precise measurements are required.
Other applications include manned and unmanned vehicles, marine surveying and fishing, seismic exploration, oil drilling, radar antenna stabilisation, structural and geotechnical monitoring. Request a free brochure from Inertial Aerosystems UK ...
