3DM-GX5-45
GNSS-Aided Inertial Navigation System (GNSS/INS)
The 3DM-GX5-45 is a high-performance, GNSS-Aided Inertial Navigation System
(GNSS/INS) that combines micro inertial sensors and a high- sensitivity
embedded Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver for use in a wide
range of industrial grade applications, such as unmanned vehicle navigation,
robotic control, platform stabilization, motion tracking and analysis, vehicle health
monitoring, and device aiming.
The 3DM- GX5 - 45 utilizes the strengths of integrated multi- axis gyroscopes ,
accelerometers , and magnetometers in combination with GNSS, temperature ,
and pressure readings to provide highly accurate position, velocity, attitude
(including heading), and inertial measurements.
The 3DM-GX5-45 communicates through a serial connection and is monitored by
a host computer. A detachable GNSS antenna is plugged into the sensor via a
non-magnetic adapter cable and connector and positioned with unobstructed line
of sight to the sky to obtain satellite links. Sensor measurements and computed
outputs can be viewed and recorded with the LORD Sensing MIP Monitor
software that is provided with system starter kits and is also available as a free
download from the LORD Sensing website. Alternatively, users can write custom
software with the open source data communication protocol. The data is time-
aligned and available by either polling or continuous stream.
