Developed in cooperation with a defence customer the trajectory below was recorded from a portable 0.23kg unit including GPS and dead-reckoning sensors. FSL were contracted to design and manufacture a micro-controller with firmware integrating both the GPS and dead-reckoning sensors to compute a position and output data to a command and control system.
The micro-controller is approximately the size of a small book of matches and contains numerous serial ports and an Atmel processor capable of computing navigational positions from a CA or P/Y code GPS receiver and dead-reckoning sensors.
