New KVH Series 1750 IMU Offers Breakthrough Performance in Ultra Compact Form Factor
June 06 2012 - 12:30AM
KVH Industries, Inc., (Nasdaq:KVHI) introduces the new Series 1750
Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), an advanced 6-degrees-of-freedom
sensor (DOF) designed to integrate easily into the most demanding
stabilization, pointing, and navigation applications, enhancing
performance at a lower cost than competing systems. The Series 1750
IMU marries the groundbreaking E•Core® ThinFiber™ technology
of KVH's DSP-1750 fiber optic gyro (FOG) with very low noise,
solid state MEMS accelerometers to create a
commercial-off-the-shelf IMU. The Series 1750 IMU offers
exceptional precision in a very small form factor, making it ideal
for applications where space is limited, such as unmanned and
autonomous systems.
"System designers and integrators have been requesting a
convenient, compact solution for applications ranging from
stabilization and pointing of high-speed gimbals, cameras, and
lasers to autonomous vehicle control and navigation," explains Jay
Napoli, KVH's vice president of FOG/OEM sales. "We've developed an
IMU that is less costly and offers better performance than
competing systems, while also offering an industry standard RS-422
interface along with user programmable data outputs, making it very
easy to integrate into new or existing applications. The Series
1750 IMU is the new flagship in a planned series of small, advanced
navigation and stabilization system sensor products based on the
DSP-1750 FOG and KVH's ThinFiber technology."
KVH's new Series 1750 IMU provides highly accurate 6DOF angular
rate and acceleration data. It delivers excellent bias
