IMU Performance Grades

Why Tactical Grade?

IMUs are classified by gyro bias stability — the number that most determines how fast navigation error grows once GNSS is lost. aSense IMUs sit firmly in the tactical-grade band, delivering hour-scale aided navigation in a MEMS-size package.

FAQ

Tactical-Grade IMU — Frequently Asked Questions

What is a tactical-grade IMU?

An inertial measurement unit whose gyro bias stability falls roughly between 0.5 and 10 °/h — accurate enough for minutes-to-hour GNSS-denied navigation when aided, while staying compact and affordable compared to navigation-grade FOG/RLG units.

MEMS or FOG — which do I need?

Modern tactical-grade MEMS IMUs like aSense offer far lower size, weight and power than FOG units. FOG becomes necessary when long unaided endurance requires navigation-grade bias stability.

How are aSense IMUs calibrated?

Every unit is calibrated in-house across its full operational temperature range on thermal chambers and rate tables, compensating bias, scale factor and axis misalignment per unit.
