Description
The AirBIRD is a self contained lightweight complete airborne magnetometer system designed for UAV applications. At the core of the AirBIRD is GEM’s modified high sensitivity Airborne Magnetometer. Especially redesigned for UAV applications, the UAV Mag is the most sensitive Magnetometer on the market and boasts the highest absolute accuracy and lowest heading error available. The electronics component of the magnetometer (GSMP-35U) has been modified to both store magnetic data and integrate with additional component data.
