THE VECTORNAV ADVANTAGE
ACCURATE ATTITUDE & HEADING FOR GUIDANCE, STABILIZATION, AND CONTROL
VectorNav AHRS solutions deliver accurate roll, pitch, and yaw across land, air, and sea applications. With tightly calibrated inertial and magnetic sensors combined through advanced sensor fusion, they provide stable attitude and heading data for guidance, stabilization, and control.
REAL-TIME HARD & SOFT IRON COMPENSATION
With two decades of development, VectorNav’s real-time hard and soft iron calibration algorithms continuously model and correct magnetic distortions caused by nearby metal structures and electrical systems. This integrated approach delivers stable heading performance in vehicles, vessels, and airframes where magnetic interference is unavoidable — without the need for recurring manual recalibration.
VELOCITY AIDING FOR DRIFT-FREE ATTITUDE
During sustained accelerations, such as banked turns or rapid maneuvers, a standard AHRS can mistake motion for gravity, causing pitch and roll errors. VectorNav’s velocity aiding incorporates real-time external speed inputs to account for centripetal acceleration and preserve accurate attitude without relying on zero-acceleration assumptions.
