Single Device combines 4 forms of position measurement.
February 16, 2009 -
Integrating 4 sensing solutions in one package, Azimuth Pointing System (APS) suits any application requiring precise location, position, or orientation measurement. It can be used to measure true north azimuth with GPS-based compass, elevation angle with integrated tilt sensor, location with on-board GPS, and distance with optional TruPulse laser rangefinder. Product is not affected by surrounding metal structures and does not require calibration/declination.

Product Info:
Multiwave Sensors Inc. announces today the release of the Azimuth Pointing System (APS). With the integration of four sensing solutions into one package, the APS becomes a powerful measurement tool. Measure true north azimuth with the GPS based compass, elevation angle with the integrated tilt sensor, location with the on board GPS, and distance with the optional TruPulse laser rangefinder.
The APS can be used to align communication antennas (azimuth, elevation), determine drill rig orientation (azimuth, dip), for Mobile/Marine Mapping (latitude, longitude) because it is not affected by the surrounding metal structures like a magnetic compass is. Measure remote geographical positions (latitude, longitude, elevation/height) from one location for asset mapping, 3D positions (X,Y,Z) for a stockpile volume calculation, Missing Line between two remote points (azimuth, distance, vertical angle) or any application that requires a precise location, position or orientation measurement.
