The high-accuracy sensors feature MIL-STD and IP68-rated housings with rugged resistance against water, dust, shock, vibration and EMI.

Available in IMU, VRU, and AHRS/MRU options, the Xsens Sirius series delivers precision navigation and stabilization capabilities and is highly suited to aerial, ground-based, and subsea mapping.

  • IMU, VRU & AHRS/MRU modules
  • 0.2° RMS roll/pitch accuracy
  • 1° RMS yaw/heading accuracy
  • Real-time heave output with <5% up to 29s wave period

Xsens Vision Navigator

Combined GNSS & visual-inertial odometry solution

Xsens Vision NavigatorXsens Vision Navigator GNSS INS solution is a precision location solution that combines dual RTK GNSS, an internal IMU and camera, and visual-inertial odometry technology to provide accurate real-time navigation data for autonomous vehicles even in GNSS-denied or degraded conditions.

Unlike traditional GNSS-INS solutions, Vision Navigator’s position drift is distance-dependent rather than time-dependent, enabling it to withstand continuous GNSS signal disturbances or prolonged outages.

  • <0.4° roll/pitch accuracy
  • 0.4° yaw/heading accuracy (1m antenna baseline)
  • RTK position accuracy 1 cm + 1 ppm
  • Position accuracy during GNSS outage 0.75% of distance travelled
