Inertial Labs launches GPS-aided INS with fiber optic gyroscope

Inertial Labs has introduced its latest GPS-aided inertial navigation system (INS), the INS-DM-FI. Designed with tactical-grade fiber-optic gyroscope (FOG) technology, the system is engineered to meet the demanding requirements of land, marine and aerial platforms.

The INS-DM-FI is a robust, IP68-rated system specifically developed for challenging environments. It offers comprehensive protection against electromagnetic interference and integrates multiple advanced capabilities, including an INS, attitude and heading reference system (AHRS), motion reference unit (MRU) and FOG IMU-based technology. An optional embedded air data computer (ADC) allows for precise determination of position, velocity and orientation for mounted platforms.

The system can deliver precise measurements of horizontal and vertical displacements and absolute orientation (heading, pitch, and roll) in both static and dynamic conditions. The system’s IMU incorporates tactical-grade FOG and MEMS accelerometers for high-precision data collection. It supports multiple GNSS receivers, including NovAtel OEM7, u-blox F9 and Septentrio mosaic-H series, which can process signals from all GNSS satellites. 

The INS-DM-FI includes an optional air data Computer supported by two barometers and is compatible with external systems like the Stand-Alone Magnetic Compass (SAMC). The system’s design incorporates the latest sensor fusion filter, anti-jamming and spoofing algorithms, navigation capabilities and comprehensive calibration software.
