HGuide HG4930 MEMS Inertial Measurement Unit
Based on 20 years of legacy development it is capable of matching performance of some FOG based IMUs in a lower SWaP-C package with vastly increased reliability.
The high reliability, long life and rugged nature of the HG4930 mean it is perfect for applications including , UAVs, Loitering Munitions, industrial equipment, robotics, survey/mapping and ground vehicles.
For higher dynamic environments, the license-required HG1930 variant of the same package is available.
The HGuide HG4930 is designed and built at a Honeywell facility in the USA. It has an ECCN of 7A994 and is generally available without an export license.
