Free to download MT Software Suite
The MT Software Suite gives you easy access to the Xsens Sirius VRU and contains a specially developed, easy-to-use graphical user interface, as well as drivers for various operating systems. It also offers many other useful tools, for example source code and documentation.
The suite comes with complete documentation. Of course, you can also always contact our technical support staff if you have questions.
The MT Software Suite includes different software programs, such as:
MT Manager (GUI)
This provides you with easy access to all the functions of your MTi from the comfort of your office. MT Manager enables recording and play back of data, real-time data viewing, including graphs, as well as easy configuration of settings.
MT SDK
This program is for self-developing your software to communicate with our sensor, including: programming examples for C, C++, C#, MATLAB, Python, ROS, and Nucleo/STM boards.
Magnetic Field Mapper
Magnetic Field Mapper (MFM) is a calibration tool for conducting magnetic calibration, available as GUI for Windows and as SDK.
