Initial launches miniature navigation system

An Inertial Aerosystems UK product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Sep 30, 2009

Inertial Aerosystems is introducing a low-cost miniature navigation system that is capable of positioning within 5m (SEP).

The MMQ-G is a combination of a solid-state inertial measurement unit and a Jupiter PICO (GPS) receiver.

The MMQ-G miniature navigation system has an operating temperature range of -40C to 71C

The MMQ-G miniature navigation system has an operating temperature range of -40C to 71C

Its MEMS quartz rate sensors and accelerometers make an IMU system that is tightly coupled with the Jupiter's 12-channel Coarse/Acquisition (C/P) code GPS engine to provide an accurate navigation solution.

The MMQ-G also accepts three-axis magnetometer data, which it uses as a heading reference to improve stability.

At 47.6 (L) x 47.6 (W) x 64.8mm (H), it is suitable for use in applications where space and weight are at a premium.

It has a power consumption of less than 5W at 12V DC and an operating temperature range of -40 to 71C.

Equipped with an RS-232 digital interface, the MMQ-G uses the C-Migits 111 message-based output format.

The product has a variety of commercial and military tracking and stabilisation applications, including targets and drones, antennas and surveillance systems, robotics, UAVs and other manned and unmanned vehicles, transportation and railroads.
