LORD Sensing Unveils New Best-in-Class Inertial Sensor
The 3DM-GX5-45 GNSS/INS inertial sensor includes the latest technology to provide highly precise and accurate measurements of position, velocity, attitude, atmospheric pressure, acceleration, and angular rate. Ideal applications for the GX5 sensor include platform stabilization, camera/antenna pointing, GNSS-aided navigation, unmanned vehicles, regime monitoring, and personnel tracking.
The GX5’s footprint is approximately 44 mm x 36 mm x 11 mm, and it weighs less than 20 grams. Those specifications, along with the sensor’s superior low-noise accelerometer and temperature compensation, combine to make the GX5 the highest-performing industrial inertial sensor in its class.
“Our GX5 inertial sensor also offers simple integration for the customer,” said Fritz Martin, LORD Sensing Manager of Inertial Engineering. “Because it shares the same miniature footprint and API as our earlier inertial lines, our users can quickly and easily drop in the GX5 to their existing application.” more

LORD Sensing-sponsored Cybathlon Team Wins Silver Medal
LORD Sensing congratulates the Florida Institute for Human & Machine Cognition (IHMC) for winning the silver medal at the CYBATHLON Championship for Athletes with Disabilities in Zurich earlier this month. The Mina v2 exoskeleton features two on-board LORD Sensing 3DM-GX4-15 inertial sensors, which provided pose information of the pilot and exoskeleton. IHMC was the only Powered Exoskeleton Race team from the United States to compete in the competition. more
