[PSUBS-MAILIST] New Generation Inertial Sensors - Twice as Accurate

Thu Mar 23 15:55:38 EDT 2017

Hi, Alan,

It's been a couple of years since I've explored them, but I do  remember 
being impressed with how affordable the products were.  They are  commonly 
(I'd guess almost always) interfaced with GPS.  You have a lot of  options for 
display, logging, and mapping.  I'd suggest contacting one  of their 
distributors to explore what system(s) they would suggest for the size  subs we're 
generally dealing with, and mention we would have the units inside  the 
pressure hull so we're not concerned with their deep pressure capability  units 
which are for ROVs.  Here are some links:

It seems they have distributors in just about every country  except NZ.  
They also exhibit at a lot of the marine technology shows  around the world.

Cheers,
Jim

Thanks Jim,
any idea of the price, & how do you read  it?
Is there some mapping program with sea depth that  it is compatible with?
Does it include GPS, or does it link to a GPS  system?
Cheers Alan

Hey Guys,

I'm on the email list for SBG Systems and thought I would  pass this along. 
 Unfortunately some of the formatting got messed up in  the forwarding 
process.  If you get on their email list, they only send  one about every three 
months, so you don't get inundated with ads and  promotions.

I've not yet tried any of their inertial nav products, but  it seems like a 
very compact and relatively cheap way to know where you are  when submerged 
and GPS in not accessible.

Cheers,
Jim T.

Subj: New Generation of  Ekinox Inertial Sensors - Twice More Accurate

SBG  Systems releases a new version of the Ellipse  Series, its popular 
product line of miniature  inertial sensors.

          PRODUCT  ANNOUNCEMENT                          
NEW  Inertial Sensors: Ekinox 2 Series, Twice More  Accurate!
Dear James Todd  ,

We  are proud to offer the second generation of the  Ekinox Series, twice 
more accurate in attitude  while keeping the same form factor and price  
level.                 
x2  Performance Improvement
With a complete redesign  of the in-house Inertial Measurement Unit,  
integrating new cutting-edge accelerometers and  very low noise gyroscopes, 
Ekinox 2 now delivers  0.02° roll & pitch while lowering the  Angular Random Walk 
to 0,14 °/√h.

Best  Performance/Size/Price

With higher accuracy,  higher resistance to vibration and highly  reliable 
performance,  Ekinox 2 Series  definitely offers the best Performance / Size 
/  Price ratio on the  market.

Beidou  Added to Ekinox-N/D

Both  N & D models integrate a bi-frequency GNSS  receiver. The addition of 
the Beidou  constellation improves the signal availability  in Asia, making 
the Ekinox position data  even more  robust.

Easy  Configuration

Configuration  is made easy with the web interface where all  parameters 
can be quickly displayed and adjusted  (Ekinox position, alignment, lever 
arms, etc).
