Inertial navigation system with sensor fusion for flight control applications introduced by Gladiator

May 13, 2020
These inertial navigation receivers are for positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) applications like flight control, navigation, and stabilization.

SNOQUALMIE, Wash. – Gladiator Technologies in Snoqualmie, Wash., is introducing the high-performance LandMark 60 INS/GPS and compact LandMark 005 inertial navigation systems (INS/GPS) for accurate position, velocity and attitude.

These GNSS receivers are integrated with a 72 channel low-noise micro electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) inertial sensor with VELOX high-speed processing to suit several positioning, navigation, and timing (PNT) applications like flight control, navigation, and stabilization for imaging, platforms, and antennas.

These navigation and guidance devices offer sensor fusion technology that combines GPS position data, low-noise high output inertial sensors, barometric pressure, and magnetometers.

Both products feature Gladiator Technologies's proprietary VELOX processing technology and Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to enable precision position information during short-term GPS outages.

The LandMark 60 INS/GPS offers plus-or-minus 0.3 degrees of heading accuracy and pitch/roll angle measurements of 0.1 degrees. It also is available with a real-time kinematics (RTK) GPS receiver.

The small LandMark 005 INS/GPS measures smaller than 35 cubic centimeters, and is for space-constrained applications that require precise INS/GPS performance.
