Marine & Ports

Maritime and port applications have to deal with many different factors, including highly changeable water and air motion. Reliability and precision are of the utmost importance in this field. The robust hard- and software, along with the anti-magnetic distortion filters of Xsens' MTi series, makes them a highly suitable, stable platform for motion technology applications at sea and in seaports. Think for example, of underwater robotics, autonomous boats, maintaining the static stability of a ship on moving water, stabilized platforms for cameras or antennas, measuring sea or underwater motion, mapping the seafloor in hyperspectral detail, or maritime and port surveillance systems. The robustness, in both hardware and software, and anti-magnetic distortion filters of Xsens' MTi series makes them well suited and a stable platform for motion technology applications at sea.
