Inertial systems, such as IMUs (Inertial Measurement Units) and INS (Inertial Navigation Systems), are often integrated with third-party software and drivers for data processing, visualization, or integration into larger systems. Ensuring compatibility is critical for seamless operation.
SBG sensors are compatible with all software accepting ASCII, NMEA, and TSS protocols.
List of the main third-party compatible software and driver
Some software companies have developed driver accepting the SBG binary protocol. These are just the main drivers to hydrographic software, if you would like to add a new software compatibility to this list, please contact us.
