High Performance MEMS Accelerometers & Gyros
Motion control - positioning - navigation of marine and subsea vehicles
Precision MEMS inertial sensors for MRU, IMU and INS
Accurate roll, pitch and yaw measurement is critical to ensure precise motion control of ships and vessels. Our high-performance digital MEMS inertial sensors offer high accuracy acceleration and angular rate measurement for integration into MRU (Motion Reference Units) used by marine applications such as ship dynamic positioning and platform stabilization.
For precision positioning and navigation of ships, AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles) and subsea ROV (Remotely Operated Vehicles), Tronics MEMS accelerometers and gyros exhibit excellent bias stability and scale factor linearity that allow our customers to design high-performance IMU (Inertial Measurement Units) and INS (Inertial Navigation Systems).
Low-SWaP alternative to quartz and Fiber optic gyros (FOG)
Tronics AXO®305 ±5 g accelerometer demonstrates a bias instability of 3 µg and a composite bias repeatability of 1 mg over its temperature range. It is ideally complemented by GYPRO®4300, a high stability 300 °/s rate gyro that exhibits an ARW of 0.07 °/√h and a bias instability of 0.4 °/h.
Their fully digital architecture with 24-bit SPI interface removes the need for discrete components on the PCB and drastically simplifies their integration at system-level, while their miniature package allows to build compact multi-axis inertial measurement systems.
Tronics AXO®305 and GYPRO®4300 offer a digital, miniature, and cost-effective alternative to bulky, expensive, and power-consuming analog sensors like quartz accelerometers and FOG (Fiber Optic Gyros).
