Gladiator's CEO, Mark Chamberlain, remarked, "Gladiator Technologies' high performance and ultra-low noise gyros offer exceptional bias over temperature performance with rugged durability. The improved G200 enables dual axis on-gimbal pitch and roll stabilization in very small applications with demanding environmental and performance requirements. In addition, it has a simple analog output." Chamberlain added, "The G200 is the latest in a series of new high performance ultra-low noise MEMS products that we will soon bring to market early next year. We are excited about our emerging technology and products and to be a leader in the high performance MEMS inertial market."
Gladiator uses state-of-the-art design tools and manufacturing processes including fully automated environmental and temperature testing and proprietary calibration methods for environmental performance optimization. A comprehensive ERP system combined with lean manufacturing and six sigma techniques has enabled high volume production at low cost and high quality. Gladiator's quality system is certified to AS9100C/ISO9001:2008.
