Ellipse-A

The Ellipse-A is a high-performance, compact AHRS sensor designed to deliver precise roll, pitch, heading, and heave measurements in marine environments where space and weight are critical. Featuring a cutting-edge MEMS-based IMU, integrated magnetometer, and advanced sensor fusion algorithms, the system ensures accurate orientation even under harsh vibrations or dynamic motion.

Industrial-grade MEMS accelerometers and gyroscopes undergo rigorous full-temperature calibration and leverage sophisticated filtering to maintain exceptional performance for stabilization, pointing, and smooth motion tracking. Optimized for marine and offshore applications, the Ellipse-A offers real-time three-axis acceleration and angular rate data at rates up to 1 kHz, supporting demanding control and navigation tasks.

Auto-adjusting heave calculations, robust magnetic disturbance handling, and user-friendly configuration via sbgCenter software ensure adaptability across a wide range of operational profiles — whether deployed on vessels, buoys, or unmanned marine platforms where resilient, high-rate orientation data is mission-critical.
