3DM-CV7-AR

The 3DM-CV7-AR Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and Vertical Reference Unit (VRU) offers tactical performance in the smallest and lightest OEM package yet. Each transducer is individually calibrated for optimum performance over a wide range of operating conditions.

Our automatic adaptive extended Kalman filter has been designed from the ground up to provide consistently reliable measurements even in the harshest environments. Cutting-edge orientation algorithms, advanced internal time management and a flexible event triggering system put the 3DM-CV7-AR in a league of its own when it comes to price and performance.
