Vertical Gyro and AHRS are based on MEMS sensors.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom) — Thu, 31 Jul 2008 07:51:27 -0500

Vertical Gyro (MMQ(TM)-VG) and Attitude, Heading, and Reference System (MMQ(TM)-AHRS) incorporate Six-Degree-of-Freedom MEMS Inertial Measurement Unit, which provides Roll, Pitch, and Heading (AHRS only) angle solution in varying dynamic conditions. Roll and Pitch are stabilized by IMU accelerometers, and heading is stabilized by external 3-axis magnetometer. While Vertical Gyro meets TSO-C4c Bank and Pitch angle requirements, AHRS meets TSO-C4c and TSO-C6D Heading performance.

Image Stabilizer features zero loss in resolution and FOV.

info@productnews.com (ThomasNet Industrial Newsroom) — Tue, 01 May 2007 07:44:56 -0500

Able to achieve image stability to 35 Âµrad, Energen Image Stabilization System consists of gyrosensor that measures vibration, lens assembly with CCD, digital signal processor, and resident software that enables fully automatic operation. System senses vibration and counteracts its effect (up to 100 Hz) via software-controlled optical elements so that CCD effectively sees Hi-Res image. Applications include mobile-, ground-, air-, or space-based observation platforms.
