Functionalities

wheeled_robot
Inertial measurement unit (IMU)

An inertial measurement unit (IMU) is a self-contained system that provides raw, calibrated sensor linear and angular motion data with a triad of gyroscopes and a triad of accelerometers. IMUs are often used as building blocks in more complex systems.

container_ship
Vertical reference unit (VRU)

A vertical reference unit (VRU) measures roll, pitch, and (unreferenced) yaw. Its sensor-fused data level is used for dynamic positioning in a variety of contexts. VRUs are the perfect solution for locations with high magnetic interference, as they do not rely on magnetic referencing.

TartanAUV
Attitude and heading reference system (AHRS)

An attitude and heading reference system, or AHRS, provides 3D orientation by integrating gyroscopes and fusing this data with accelerometer and magnetometer data. The yaw output is referenced to true north and the result is a drift-free orientation.

Autonomous tractor - agriculture
Real-time kinematic positioning (RTK GNSS/INS)

Real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning is a satellite navigation technology used to increase the precision of position data obtained from satellite positioning systems.

Applications

autonomous_vehicle
Autonomous vehicles

In travel and transport, autonomous vehicles are on the rise. The range of possibilities in this field is extensive. So is the list of tech requirements needed. Our MTi products can be used in any of these areas. 

ROV-1-edited
Surface and underwater robotics

Reliability and precision are of the utmost importance in this field. The robust hardware and software, along with the anti-magnetic distortion filters of the MTi series, make them a highly suitable, stable platform for motion technology applications at sea and in seaports.

drone-1
Unmanned aircraft and drones

Aerospace and drone applications require ever-increasing accuracy and precision. Whether you need low-power consumption, low-latency, high-speed processing, or a lightweight and small motion tracking sensor, you’ll find a fit for any aviation, air, or space application.

AGV
Indoor mobile robots

Indoor mobile robots are getting smarter all the time, thanks to collaborative robotics, autonomous vehicles, sensor technology, and the Internet of Things (IoT). Our MTi solutions meet all the specific demands of this application.
