Inertial Labs, a developer of inertial navigation and measurement units, has announced the release of IMU-FI-200C High-Performance Fiber-Optic Gyroscopes (FOG) Inertial Measurement Units, a revolutionary unit due to its compact, self-contained strapdown, advanced tactical-grade Inertial Measurement Units, that measures linear accelerations and angular rates with three-axis tactical-grade, closed-loop Fiber-Optic Gyroscopes (FOG) and three-axis high-precision MEMS accelerometers in motionless and high dynamic application. Fully calibrated, temperature compensated, and mathematically aligned to an orthogonal coordinate system, the IMU contains up to 0.5 deg/hr gyroscopes and less than 2 mg bias repeatability over the operational range accelerometers with very low noise and high reliability.
The IMU-FI-200C High-Performance Fiber-Optic Gyroscopes (FOG) Inertial Measurement Units are a fully integrated inertial measurement solution that combines the latest closed-loop FOG and MEMS sensors technologies. Also, it’s easy to use in a wide range of higher-order integrated system applications. For example, Antenna and Line of Sight Stabilization Systems, Passenger trains acceleration/deceleration and jerking systems, Motion Reference Units (MRU), Motion Control Sensors (MCS), Gimbals, EOC/IR, and platforms orientation and stabilization.
The IMU-FI-200CHigh-Performance Fiber-Optic Gyroscopes (FOG) Inertial Measurement Units are tested to perform in significant variations in temperature, high vibration, and shock designed for air, marine, and land environments.
“New technology creates new opportunities, and the new IMU-FI-200C represents the innovative approach we take every day at Inertial Labs,” said Jamie Marraccini, President & CEO of Inertial Labs,
“[the] high performance and the flexibility to integrate into different systems and applications is what we have striven to provide our customers with this new release.”
The Inertial Labs IMU-FI-200C models were designed for applications like:
- Antenna and Line of Sight Stabilization Systems
- Passenger trains acceleration/deceleration and jerking systems
- Motion Reference Units (MRU)
- Motion Control Sensors (MCS)
- Gimbals, EOC/IR, platforms orientation and stabilization
- GPS-Aided Inertial Navigation Systems (INS)
- Attitude and Heading Reference Systems (AHRS)
- Land vehicles navigation and motion analysis
- Buoy or Racing Boat Motion Monitoring
- UAV & AUV/ROV navigation and control
