2 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing PNI Sensor Corporation’s TRAX attitude & heading reference system
(AHRS). The TRAX employs a proprietary Kalman filtering algorithm that intelligently fuses
PNI's patented Reference Magnetic Sensors with a 3-axis gyroscope and 3-axis accelerometer.
The result is an orientation device that provides accurate heading information under a wide
variety of conditions, including its ability to overcome errors normally caused by erratic motion
and/or changes in the local magnetic field. The advanced features of the TRAX make it ideal for
a variety of applications, including:
Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGV) – Robots and Unmanned Conversions
Unmanned Underwater Vehicles (UUV) – Autonomous Gliders and ROV’s
We’re sure the TRAX will help you to achieve the greatest performance from your system.
Thank you for selecting the TRAX.
