Merak-A02 – Small GNSS Strapdown Aircraft Inertial Navigation System (FOG INS)
The Merak-A02 is a high-performance, compact airborne inertial navigation system (INS) designed for UAVs and specialized aircraft. It integrates FOG/RLG gyroscopes and quartz accelerometers in a strapdown configuration. The system’s real-time fusion center combines inertial data with GNSS, celestial navigation, and other data sources, providing accurate and reliable navigation solutions.
Key Advantages for UAV Applications
-
Reliable ground and air alignment for precise initialization
-
Multiple alignment mode selection to meet diverse operational requirements
-
Scalable navigation augmentation for integrating additional sensors or data sources
-
Continuous system monitoring to ensure operational reliability
The Merak-A02 FOG INS delivers high-precision, real-time navigation data in a compact form factor, making it ideal for UAVs, drones, and small aircraft platforms.
