The coremicro AHRS/INS/GPS Integration Unit uses
a GPS receiver, coremicro IMU, as well as a processor module with
embedded software. The coremicro AHRS/INS/GPS Integration Unit
provides interface to facilitate input/output to a PC for demonstration
display. The connection to a PC permits the display of position
time histories for information, study and general education purposes,
as shown in the Figure.
The coremicro AHRS/INS/GPS Integration
Unit combines AGNC's MEMS IMU and possibly the robust complementary
service of DGPS corrections from the FAA WAAS DGPS systems to
provide unprecedented accuracy performance for a wide variety
of precise navigation and positioning applications. Detail characteristics
see the System Characteristics below.
