Long before ships relied on GPS to determine their location – and even before radio navigation systems such as LORAN, vessels relied on a still impressively sophisticated means of determining their ...

Among other industries, inertial navigation systems (INS) are used to help navigate many types of vehicle (land, sea and air). They are different to navigation systems used by the general public, i.e.

Underwater gravity-aided inertial navigation systems (GINS) combine the high-frequency, self-contained measurements from inertial sensors with geophysical gravity data to overcome the positional ...

Inertial navigation systems use information provided by accelerometers and gyroscopes to provide the position and orientation of an object relative to a predetermined origin point, orientation and ...

Inertial Labs, a leading innovator in navigation and positioning solutions, proudly announces the launch of its latest product, the INS-FI. This GPS-aided Inertial Navigation System (INS) represents ...

Nordic Inertial and Murata have come up with a combination of new algorithms and MEMS sensors which delivers positioning capabilities close to navigation grade using mass produced sensors. The ...
