All of our IMU's have a common messaging protocol enabling a user to have a "common cockpit" to move up or down in performance without having to change any software in their system. All of our IMU's feature internal vibration isolation, precision alignment and environmental sealing for robust performance in challenging environments.

The LandMark™ 30 IMU "LN Series" is our highest performance inertial measurement unit (IMU) and combines ultra low noise MEMS gyros (0.003°/sec/√Hz) and accelerometers to enable performance commenserate with small RLG's and small open-loop FOG's, but with much lower cost MEMS sensors. This low noise and high performance MEMS IMU is ideal for sophisticated technology users experienced with high performance inertial systems that desire both lower cost and no wear-out modes for long system life. In addition to the ultra low noise MEMS gyros and accelero-meters other key performance advantages include In-Run Gyro Bias of 8°/hour 2σ, Bias Over Temperature of <0.03°/sec all available within input power ranges of +6V to +36V making it ideal for many ground transportation and aircraft applications.
