Vehicle Navigation and Tracking
MicroStrain's cost-effective IMU, AHRS and GNSS/INS sensors are a trusted product in Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs), and Drone navigation and tracking. Our miniature, lightweight sensors can be deployed in a variety of defense and commercial autonomous platforms to improve the accuracy and reliability of navigation and tracking.
With industry-leading size, weight, and power consumption, MicroStrain inertial sensors offer an optimal solution for unmanned land, sea and air vehicles to achieve excellent inertial sensing, vehicle tracking, and antenna pointing performance. All of our sensor systems are factory-calibrated over their full operating temperature range to ensure highly reliable performance between devices.
