Inertial Labs has introduced its latest GPS-Aided Inertial Navigation System (INS), the INS-DM-FI, designed using tactical-grade Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG) technology. This next-generation INS is built to meet the demands of land, marine, and aerial platforms, providing high accuracy and durability.
The INS-DM-FI is an IP68-rated, super ruggedized system designed for challenging environments. It is shielded from electromagnetic interference (EMI) and fully integrates multiple capabilities, including INS, Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS), Motion Reference Unit (MRU), and FOG IMU-based technology. The system also offers an optional embedded Air Data Computer (ADC), delivering top-tier performance in determining any mounted platform’s position, velocity, and orientation.
Horizontal and vertical displacements and absolute orientation (Heading, Pitch, and Roll) are determined with precision whether the device is in motion or static. The INS-DM-FI provides reliable results for various dynamic and motionless applications, making it a versatile tool for users across multiple industries.
The system has an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) incorporating Tactical-grade Fiber Optic Gyroscopes and MEMS accelerometers. The INS-DM-FI supports embedded multi-constellation GNSS receivers, including NovAtel OEM7, u-blox F9, and Septentrio mosaic-H series, which are capable of processing GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO, QZSS, and BEIDOU signals. It also features advanced anti-jamming and spoofing mitigation for enhanced security and precision.
The INS-DM-FI includes an optional embedded Air Data Computer (ADC) supported by two barometers and is designed to support external systems such as the Stand-Alone Magnetic Compass (SAMC). Additionally, the system integrates the latest sensor fusion filter, state-of-the-art navigation algorithms, and comprehensive calibration software to ensure optimal performance.
“The INS-DM-FI is built for precision and toughness. It performs exceptionally well across different environments—on land, in the air, or at sea. With advanced Fiber Optic Gyro technology and robust integration capabilities, it’s a system that provides reliable, accurate data, even in the most demanding conditions. It’s about giving users confidence that their equipment will deliver when it matters most.” — Jamie Marraccini, CEO of Inertial Labs.
