Navigation and Sensors

Accelerometers 

With more than three million shipped since 2001, our quartz-based accelerometers have earned a reputation for being the industry standard because of their unparalleled accuracy, durability and quality.

Air Data Management 

We provide several varieties of RVSM (Reduced Vertical Separation Minima)- compliant ADCs (Air Data Computers), which use our sensor technology to deliver products with industry-leading size, weight, power, accuracy and stability.

Alignment Systems 

Our precision boresight alignment system (PBAS) is a non-optical, gyro-stabilized computerized system that uses navigation-grade inertial technology to capture and calculate boresight alignment corrections.

Alternative Navigation 

Alternative navigation systems use cameras, LiDAR, radar, radios and star tracker sensors to augment and/or aid inertial navigation systems where GPS is unavailable.

Attitude Heading Reference Systems 

Our micro-electromechanical system (MEMS)-based attitude and heading reference systems (AHRS) are designed to provide unparalleled reliability and performance with significantly reduced size and weight compared to similar systems.

Global Navigation Satellite System 

The Global Navigation System Sensor Unit is designed to provide highly accurate GPS satellite navigation positions and is certified for the full range of flight.

Ground Based Augmentation Systems 

Our magneto-resistive sensors and ground-based augmentation system (GBAS) provide cost-effective precision navigation solutions for everything from watches to airports.

Gyroscopes 

Our precision gyroscope and portable alignment tool help make sure your vehicle is positioned accurately, filtering out ambient motion.

Inertial Measurement Units 

Our inertial measurement units serve our aerospace customers and emerging applications including autonomous vehicles, communications, marine, mobile mapping, oil and gas, platform stabilization and more.  

Inertial Reference Systems 

Our inertial reference systems perform to the highest standards with state-of-the-art technology and reliability.

Magnetic Sensing 

Our low-field magnetic sensors are among the industry’s most sensitive and reliable, designed to accurately detect the direction and magnitude of external magnetic fields for compassing, magnetometry and positioning applications.

Non-Inertial 

We offer a wide range of non-inertial positional and thermal sensors for commercial and military applications.

Precision Pressure 

Our air data and pressure products are among the most accurate and stable sensor-based hardware in the industry.

Receivers 

Our third-generation integrated multi-mode receiver (IMMR) is the air transport industry’s only fully digital navigation receiver, incorporating instrument landing systems (ILS), global positioning systems (GPS), GPS landing systems (GLS) and VHF omnidirectional radio range (VOR).

Software Updates 

Update your magnetic variation table every 10 years to avoid operational restrictions in northernmost airports like those serving Anchorage, Fairbanks, Glasgow and Edinburgh.

Thermal Switches 

Our high-reliability thermal switches are the result of years of meticulous engineering. Customers can select any number of off-the shelf designs, eliminating the need for nonrecurring engineering.
