The ANELLO IMU+, developed by ANELLO Photonics, is now available for robust and dependable autonomous navigation and positioning in GNSS-denied or GNSS-compromised situations.
The ANELLO IMU+ delivers great precision and dependability in severe situations like as shock, vibration, electromagnetic interference, and temperature, thanks to ANELLO’s unique and proven optical gyroscope technology. The ANELLO IMU+ is designed for self-driving applications in the construction, robotics, mining, trucking, and defense industries. The ANELLO IMU+ outperforms existing market options in terms of long-term dead reckoning in high-temperature and high-vibration situations.
“The ANELLO IMU+ is built upon our optical gyro technology and is our response to the market’s need for a small, highly-accurate, robust and reliable inertial measurement unit for various high-precision autonomous applications in environments without GNSS which are a challenge for Industrial and Defense applications alike,” Dr. Mario Paniccia, CEO of ANELLO Photonics stated. “The ANELLO IMU+ has been developed based on input from our customers across different industries and aims to enable multiple demanding autonomous applications.”
The ANELLO IMU+ system was created with durability, dependability, and usability in mind. The growing demand for smooth navigation and placement of autonomous systems in GNSS-denied or GNSS-compromised situations enables ANELLO and its revolutionary optical gyro technology to serve difficult customer applications and different use cases. The unique ANELLO IMU+ system includes the following standard features:
- Unaided heading drift of < 0.5°/hr
- Small form factor: <10in3 (75 x 75 x 28mm)
- ASIL-D Ready Automotive Qualified CPU and OS
- Dual high-speed CAN FD Interfaces
- Dual RS-232 Interfaces
- IP68 – Waterproof, Resistant to Dust, Salt Spray and Chemicals
ANELLO Photonics is now conducting field testing with a number of industry leaders in the Construction, Farming, Robotics, Trucking, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, Autonomous Vehicles, and Defense sectors.
