Products

Tactical grade IMU

DMU41 high performance IMU

DMU41

[Category: Navigation & Communication Systems-Dynamic Positioning]

A non-ITAR, tactical grade, 9DOF IMU. FOG-comparable inertial performance from the highest-performing silicon MEMS inertial measurement unit (IMU) on the market today. Class-leading bias instability, excellent angle random walk and exceptional low noise characteristics from a 50 x 50 x 50mm unit that weighs less than 180g and consumes little power.

High performance stand along gyro

CRH03 gyro

CRH03

[Category: Navigation & Communication Systems-Dynamic Positioning]

The CRH03 is a stand-alone gyro delivering precise inertial sensing performance that is stable over time and temperature. Small, lightweight and rugged, with low power consumption and proven performance, CRH03 is an excellent and cost-effective alternative to FOG and DTG-based products - and is available in both housed and OEM configurations.

Compact gyro for downhole drilling

CRS39A ultra-high stability MEMS gyro.

CRS39A

[Category: Navigation & Communication Systems-Dynamic Positioning]

For use in severe environments including subsea downhole drilling, the CRS39A includes a move to a single board from two, reducing the unit’s mass by 40% compared to its predecessor. This allows far more easy installation in space-limited applications such as the 25mm diameter cylinders typically used in downhole drilling equipment.
