Frequently Asked Questions
What is the OEM Ellipse-A: High-Performance AHRS Sensor?
OEM Ellipse-A belongs to Ellipse series line of miniature, high-performance MEMS-based Inertial Systems providing a reliable orientation and heave in a compact package. It includes an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), a built-in magnetometer and runs an on-board latest generation sensor fusion algorithm.This OEM version embeds high performance, industrial grade MEMS accelerometers and gyroscopes.
What is the difference between an AHRS and an IMU?
An IMU outputs raw angular rate and acceleration, while an AHRS such as the OEM Ellipse-A: High-Performance AHRS Sensor runs onboard sensor fusion to output ready-to-use roll, pitch and heading — no external estimation algorithm required.
Where is the OEM Ellipse-A: High-Performance AHRS Sensor available?
The OEM Ellipse-A: High-Performance AHRS Sensor is available through Leo Drive in the following region: Turkey. For other regions, please contact Leo Drive.
