PR Newswire (US)
Self-contained navigation system offers an affordable blend of
KVH's precision fiber optic gyros and NovAtel GPS for commercial
applications MIDDLETOWN, R.I., April 29 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --
KVH Industries, Inc., (NASDAQ:KVHI) announced today that it has
received a new $1 million order for its CNS-5000, a self-contained
navigation system that combines fiber optic gyro (FOG)-based
inertial measurement technology from KVH with global positioning
system (GPS) technology from NovAtel. This rugged navigation
solution affordably provides the precise position and orientation
of a host platform on a continuous basis, even during periods where
GPS signals are blocked by natural or man-made obstructions or
conditions. "This latest order, following on the heels of another
$900,000 order a month ago, is evidence of the rapid acceptance of
the CNS-5000 and the demand for a self-contained, commercial
navigation solution," said Dan Conway, KVH's vice president of
business development. "The CNS-5000's precision navigation and easy
integration with a wide range of other systems make it an ideal
solution for demanding commercial applications, such as dynamic
surveying, precision agriculture, container terminal management,
and autonomous vehicle navigation." The CNS-5000 offers seamless
integration of KVH's FOG-based IMU with NovAtel's OEMV(R) GPS
precision receiver technology. The tight coupling of these
technologies within the CNS-5000 optimizes the raw GPS and IMU
data, delivering position data accurate to one inch along with
superior velocity and attitude information. Composed entirely of
commercial components and designed to meet COTS requirements, the
CNS-5000 also minimizes the operational complexities for customers
whose products cross international boundaries. KVH's fiber optic
guidance and sensor systems are used in an array of commercial and
defense-related stabilization, navigation, autonomous vehicle, and
precision guidance applications. Visit http://fiberopticgyro.com/
