DARPA-Funded MEMS Sensors Promise Greater Accuracy

摘要

Honeywell, with funding from the U.S. Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), is creating the next generation of inertia) sensor technology that will one day be used in both commercial and defense navigation applications. Findings gathered in Honeywell labs have shown the new sensors to be greater than an order of magnitude more accurate than Honeywell's HG1930 inertial measurement unit (IMU) product, a tactical-grade product with more than 150,000 units currently in use.
