Inertial navigation system showing IMU and GNSS-INS providing position, orientation, velocity and timing for a moving platform

Inertial Navigation Sensors By VectorNav (IMU, AHRS & GNSS/INS)

Modern platforms increasingly rely on accurate positioning, navigation and timing (PNT) data to operate reliably in dynamic environments. GNSS-derived timing outputs are commonly used for sensor synchronisation, time-aligned data logging, and system coordination within larger platform architectures. Inertial navigation sensors play …

Propellant Testing Rocket Start Up

Rocket Motor Static Testing for Propellant Development

The development of new rocket propellants depends heavily on accurate, repeatable ground testing. Before any propulsion system progresses to flight qualification, engineers must fully understand how a propellant behaves under controlled conditions. Particularly thrust output, chamber pressure, burn rate, and thermal …
