Kongsberg Seapath 200
Availability: Rental
The Seapath 200 provides highly accurate, real-time heading, attitude and position information by blending the best characteristics of sensor-based inertial navigation and GPS continuous position update technologies. High-rate motion data obtained from the system’s IMU (Inertial Measurements Unit) and precise position data from two, fixed baseline GPS carrier-phase receivers are integrated in a Kalman Filter within the Seapath Processing Unit. Based on analysis and extensive field testing, the Kalman Filter algorithms have been refined to insure maximum measurement fidelity and reliability.
The Seapath 200 IMU contains highly accurate linear accelerometers and Bosch Coriolis force angular rate gyros (CFG). Real-world precision accuracy is guaranteed by utilising the most accurate calibration methods and sophisticated production equipment available. Roll and pitch accuracy together with the linear acceleration performance are documented for each delivered IMU on a Calibration Certificate.
