Navigation and inertial Data Distribution. Air temperature

Data computation and data distribution to all Reliability

shipboard sub-systems of all directions motion The C-MAN actual MTBF, per typical naval mission profile

sensing, attitude and position. is over 10,000 hours

Interface to Command & Control, Weapons,

Electro Optical Directors, Radar Antennas and all

ship’s inertial data users.

High accuracy, high reliability inertial sensor

with embedded GPS, accurate positioning at

minimal drift rates.

System redundancy:

Designed for full MEMS or RLG INS/GPS sensors

redundancy architecture.

Multiple outputs of Synchro and/or digital signals

to support multiple-outputs redundancy.

Flexibility and Modularity

Modular architecture allowing the use of any

combination of sensors (INS/GPS, EM/Doppler

Log, Echo sounder, Metrological center, etc.).

From basic low cost small vessels single sensor

system to high-end large surface vessels Operating and Control Consoles (OCC)
