The MIDG II INS/GPS
The MIDG II is an Inertial Navigation System (INS) with Global Positioning System (GPS) contained in an incredibly small package. This INS/GPS package is ideally suited for any unmanned vehicle application that requires an inertial navigation solution. The MIDG II INS/GPS package is specifically designed to be used with the APS - Series Autopilot Platform, but can also be used with other autopilot packages for primary instrumentation.
Message rates are configurable, and individual messages may be polled. All data messages are timestamped with GPS time, and a One Pulse Per Second signal is available for time synchronization in the host computer. Operational mode is selectable, including IMU only operation, vertical gyro simulation with magnetic aiding, and full INS solution. The MIDG II is intended for use in applications requiring a full state vector including attitude, position, altitude, velocity, acceleration, and angular rate.
