Aeron’s PLX3 is a family of highly compact MEMS-based Inertial Navigation Systems. The system runs an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF), offering near-tactical performance and providing the best estimates of navigation parameters, including position, velocities, attitude, and heading. PLX3-N features tri-axial MEMS solid-state accelerometers, tri-axial gyroscopes, a tri-axial magnetometer for heading measurement, and an integrated multi-constellation GNSS. PLX3-N is a miniature INS that is low-powered and can fit in applications where size is a constraint. Due to its small size, it can be used in UAVs, UGVs, and other unmanned systems for navigation and control applications. This strap-down system is very well suited for applications requiring precise positioning and is designed to perform in highly dynamic situations. The device can control aerial and ground vehicles by using its precise attitude, heading, and position information. Aeron’s PLX3-N inertial navigation system has a navigation output data rate of 200 Hz and a raw gyro and acceleration data rate of up to 1000 Hz. It can be interfaced over serial RS232 and UART TTL ports, making data acquisition analysis easy.
2 m CEP position accuracy and 0.2 m/s velocity accuracy with integrated multi-constellation GNSS for precision positioning of drones.
Tiny C-SWAP suitable for unmanned applications – Size - 45 mm (L) x 45 mm (W) x 20 mm (H) and Power < 2W.
Weighs just 40 gm, suitable for micro-UAV applications and yet ruggedized to meet tactical application requirements.
