MicroStrain by HBK Launches Embeddable Inertial Navigation System

MicroStrain by HBK has launched the 3DM-CV7-INS, a tactical-grade embeddable inertial navigation system (INS) – a solution that balances power and flexibility.

In the world of inertial navigation, flexibility is paramount. No two systems operate the same: a drone may focus primarily on stability, while an autonomous robot may need precision localization capabilities. With the 3DM-CV7-INS, flexibility does not come at the expense of performance.

The 3DM-CV7-INS allows for optimum performance in every application, as it’s able to accept many external aiding measurements into a tactical-grade INS, with the full functionality of a GNSS/INS in an 8-gram package.

Key features include:

  • Flexible, Adaptive Full Navigation EKF designed for demanding navigation applications
  • 4 independent, configurable external aiding frames for simplified external aiding sensor input
  • Multiple external aiding measurements for improved GNSS-denied event performance
  • High-rate GNSS input for improved low speed position accuracy
  • Tactical grade IMU (1.5°/hr gyro bias instability)
  • Fully calibrated over entire Industrial temperature range
  • Compact and low-profile package weighing only 8.3 grams

The ability of the INS to accept both NMEA and MIP aiding inputs gives control and flexibility back to the user: MIP-aiding enhances accuracy and reduces drift, making it the ideal choice for applications where precision is paramount, with NMEA-aiding offering a quick, full PVA solution for those looking to expedite development and improve speed to market.
