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 Microbot Autopilot Platform, but can also be used with other autopilot packages for primary instrumentation.

In an effort to conserve energy, Microbotics support and production
offices will be closed on Fridays.

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. MIDG is intended for use in applications requiring a full state vector, including attitude, position, altitude, velocity, acceleration, and angular rates.
