Silicon Sensing will be showcasing its latest advancements in inertial sensing technology at Intergeo, October 7–9, in Frankfurt, Germany, at Booth 12.0/OF121.
Silicon Sensing provides micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) inertial sensors and systems for applications requiring precision performance. Its inertial products are used for motion sensing across land, sea, air, and space, offering performance in critical areas such as bias instability and angle random walk that is comparable to larger, heavier, and costlier fibre optic gyroscope (FOG)-based units.
Products range from miniature, low-cost navigation and pointing gyros to a tactical-grade, 9-degrees-of-freedom (DOF) inertial measurement unit (IMU). Recent contracts include supplying the latest CRH03 tactical-grade gyro to Psionic Inc. for its SurePath™ navigation system, where it will provide critical heading information and support GNSS-denied navigation.
The company’s engineering team has also recently shared advice on the use of MEMS inertial sensors to enhance the stability of a tactical all-terrain vehicle (ATV). This follows a piece earlier this year exploring the factors involved in choosing whether to buy or build an IMU.
More information on Silicon Sensing’s inertial systems will be available at Intergeo Booth 12.0/OF121.
