KVH Receives $7.6 Million Fiber Optic Gyro Order
December 20 2011 - 7:00AM
KVH Industries, Inc., (Nasdaq:KVHI) announced today that it has
received a $7.6 million order for its single-axis fiber optic gyros
(FOGs) from an international defense contractor to support weapon
and optical stabilization in remote weapon stations for the U.S.
military. Delivery of this order will begin immediately and
continue into 2013.
"KVH's compact, rugged, and affordable fiber optic gyros are
extremely versatile," says Jay Napoli, KVH's vice president of
FOG/OEM sales. "End users and system integrators choose KVH FOGs
for their range of output options, patented Digital Signal
Processing (DSP) electronics design, and outstanding performance
with regard to bias stability, scale factor linearity, turn-on to
turn-on repeatability, and high bandwidth. These exceptionally low
noise FOGs are ideal for demanding applications, including those
that require precise measurement of rate and turning angle as well
as the ability to withstand the shock of repeated, high-speed
gunfire."
KVH's fiber optic guidance and sensor systems are used in an
array of commercial and defense-related stabilization, navigation,
autonomous vehicle, and precision guidance applications. Please
