It leverages the Inertial Labs aiding data\necosystem, sensor fusion filters, calibration software and state-of-the-art\nnavigation algorithms to deliver precise time, position, velocity and attitude\nmeasurements. This includes the integration of fully calibrated tactical-grade\nMEMS accelerometers and gyroscopes, barometric altimeter, magnetometers and\nfull-constellation GNSS receiver (GPS, QZSS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, NavIC).\n\nThe platform is also highly expandable, enabling the additional integration of\nboth Inertial Labs sensor modules and commercial off-the-shelf vision cameras.\n\n\"Visual navigation needs continuous information about vehicle position,\norientation and time.
