Aerial Photogrammetry

This application note goes through the advantages and limitations of photogrammetry, the practical implementation of using photogrammetry for surveying and the impact of GNSS/INS precision on the photogrammetric process.

Application Note
Aerial Photogrammetry, VN-200, VN-210, VN-300, VN-310
Gimbal Stabilization & Pointing

This note introduces the variety of applications and design considerations relevant to all gimballed systems, alongside recommendations on navigation sensors for optimal performance.

VN-100, VN-110, VN-200, VN-210, VN-300, VN-310
Gimballed EO/IR Systems

For a wide range of end-users, real-time intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) information is critical to operations. Aircraft can be fitted with a sophisticated sensor suite consisting of electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) instruments, or other remote sensing systems on a two-axis gimbal to rapidly capture data over a broad area.

Lidar Mapping

This note goes through the advantages of LIDAR over other surveying methods, the practical implementation of using LIDAR for surveying, and the impact of GNSS/INS precision on LIDAR accuracy.

Application Note
LIDAR Mapping, Tactical Embedded, VN-200, VN-210, VN-300, VN-310
Satellite Communications

This note walks through the pointing requirements for SATCOM applications and provides guidance for choosing the best inertial sensor for such applications.

Application Note
SATCOM, VN-100, VN-110, VN-200, VN-210, VN-300, VN-310
Target Tracking Gimbal - Active Control

Many ISR, military, and law enforcement applications require pointing a sensing payload at a moving target. Aircraft can be fitted with a sophisticated sensor suite consisting of Electro-Optical/Infra Red (EO/IR) instruments in combination with a laser rangefinder (LRF), or other remote sensing systems and combinations on a two-axis gimbal to enable precise target tracking. This note provides a detailed analysis for choosing the right GNSS/INS system for such applications, alongside other integration considerations that will determine total system performance. The error budget is derived and an example provided to demonstrate the impact of various design choices.
