NAV Family
MEMSIC's NAV440 product family utilizes MEMS-based inertial sensors and GPS technology to provide a high accuracy system for dynamic platforms. These platforms include airborne systems (unmanned aerial vehicles, aircraft), land vehicles (tanks, HUMVEES), and marine vessels. The core technology consists of sophisticated algorithms and advanced signal processing techniques for the integration of GPS and Inertial Measurement Unit data for the purpose of real-time navigation and post mission, high precision positioning and attitude determination.
The NAV440 is a fully-integrated GPS-aided attitude & heading reference system and GPS navigation solution. The NAV440 provides full inertial data (angles, rates, accels) and GPS position, along with inertially derived velocity that provides significant improvement in stability and latency compared with stand-alone GPS velocity measurements.

AHRS Family
MEMSIC’s AHRS series of solid-state inertial measurement systems combines the functions of a Vertical Gyro and a Directional Gyro to provide measurement of Roll, Pitch, and Heading angles.
The AHRS500 is the most widely used MEMS-based Attitude and Heading Reference System for avionics upgrades. The field-proven FAA-certified AHRS500GA is providing accurate and reliable attitude
and heading information to instrument panels and autopilots in more than five hundred fixed-wing and rotary-wing aircraft.
Certification: TSO C4c and TSO C6d; it is qualified per DO-160 and DO178B Level C test standards.
Output: RS-232 or RS-422
The AHRS510CA is a field proven high-reliability MEMS Attitude & Heading Reference System that supports all of the standard ARINC 429 message labels for an AHRS. The AHRS510CA is designed for use in OEM and retrofit aircraft avionics systems, and for airborne antenna pointing systems.

VG Family
Traditional Vertical Gyros use a mechanically gimbaled gyro system that is erected to a gravity reference to provide measurement of roll and pitch angles relative to earth’s horizontal axes. MEMSIC’s VG platforms utilize the latest MEMS micro-machined sensing technology. The VG combines angular rate and linear acceleration measurements to create an electronically stabilized "VG", without the typical orientation, warm-up and reliability limitations of traditional systems.
The VG350CA is a robust entry-level system for cost-sensitive OEM and commercial applications while the VG440CA provides an unmatched value in terms of price and performance. The VG700CB series is a 3rd-generation high stability Fiber Optic Vertical Gyro with less than 20°/Hr drift while the VG700AB series is specifically designed for Automotive Test Applications. The VG800CA is a high stability (3°/hr) MEMS Vertical Gyroscope specifically designed for demanding commercial and automotive applications.
