Inertial Measurement Units: The hidden key to Apollo success, now a MEMS device (Part 2)
Part 1 of this article looked at the classic, highly refined, mature gyroscope-based IMU used for the Apollo moon mission; this part looks at the very different technologies which have largely replaced it. Gyro-based IMU: obsolete, or not? Inertial navigation relies on a stable platform with an orientation which is fixed in space and maintains […]
Inertial Measurement Units: The hidden key to Apollo success, now a MEMS device (Part 1)
Transforming the gyroscope from a child’s toy to a precise guidance system for the Apollo moon landings demanded the ultimate in analytical, engineering, and manufacturing effort: now, MEMS-based units have largely replaced these gyro-based systems. With the 50th anniversary of the Apollo manned lunar landing on July 16, 1969, 9:32 AM GMT-4, there have been […]
Precision six-axis inertial measurement unit comes in a small package
The NavChip Series 3 high precision Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) boosts bias in-run stability to 3º/hr (typical), 5º/hr (max.); over the ± 16 g operating range (other ranges available upon request). The previously introduced NavChip had a bias in-run stability of 5º/hr (typical), 10º/hr (max.). Other significant enhancements include a 1,000-Hz update rate, embedded AHRS […]
