    GPS modules for surveillance and homeland defence

    Instro’s GPS based products are centred around a GPS-based north finding, position and attitude determination module for accurate all weather, all terrain stationary measurement of bearing. The module has been designed for use in ferro-magnetic environments such as heavy vehicles and ships where electronic compass-based solutions are not viable and where inertial systems are too costly. Available as an OEM sensor the module can be integrated with both new and existing systems via an RS232 serial data link.
