High Performance and Compact IMU and INS/GNSS for Car Testing

An Inertial Navigation System (INS) provides vehicle speed, roll, pitch, position, and other parameters that are for vehicle behavior analysis.

Using an INS that fuses in real-time  position, odometer, and inertial data greatly increases the precision of the further analysis.

Tips

Precise attitude is crucial for automotive testing applications. SBG Systems offers three different level of precision with the Ellipse, the Ekinox, and the Apogee product lines. All AHRS compute real-time precise roll and pitch information even in high dynamics or vibrating conditions.

To reach the best performance when GNSS outages occur, entering the lever arm between the GNSS receiver and the antenna is the best practice.

SBG sensors connect to Odometer/DMI and fuse GNSS, odometer, and inertial data in real-time to reach the highest performance in harsh conditions such as urban canyons, forests, tunnels, etc.
