Application Areas

VectorNav Technologies, the world leader in embedded navigation solutions, introduced a groundbreaking new line of inertial products: the VectorNav Tactical Embedded. Featuring a tactical-grade IMU and a multi-band GNSS receivers, the Tactical Embedded delivers milliradian attitude accuracy and centimetre-level positioning capability in a miniature 15-gram package.

Aerial photogrammetry is expanding into new applications and end uses that were previously too costly or impractical. Professional photogrammetry can produce outputs with horizontal (x,y) accuracies in the range of 1 cm (0.4 in) and elevation (z) accuracies of 2 to 3 cm (0.8 to 1.2 in), which enables precise volumetric analysis. In this section, we are going to focus on photogrammetry and the adva…

Instead of using a stand alone GNSS and IMU, a more suitable solution for estimating EOPs of the LiDAR sensor is to use a GNSS/INS. The advantages of using a GNSS/INS include a more accurate attitude solution, ability to carry position and velocity updates through short GNSS outages and several other advantages.
