Setting the Standard in Inertial Navigation:

The MicroStrain 3DM-GQ7-GNSS/INS is a complete RTK-enabled navigation solution featuring centimeterlevel position accuracy.
The system includes dual multiband GNSS receivers, low-noise and low-drift MEMS inertial sensors, and a robust Adaptive Extended Kalman Filter (EKF).
MicroStrain sensors have set the standard for inertial sensor performance for over 20 years. The 3DM-GQ7GNSS/INS continues to build upon that legacy and includes a host of new features that ensure optimum performance in even the most demanding applications.Parker MicroStrain 3DM GQ7 GNSS INS Tactical

MicroStrain 3DM-RTK

Minimizing your time to market by removing the need for base station infrastructure
The MicroStrain 3DM-RTK Cellular Correction Modem transmits easy-to-use Real Time Kinematic (RTK) correction data to be utilized by the 3DM-GQ7-GNSS/INS. It provides the simplicity of a cellular connection to our SensorCloud RTK base station network, replacing cumbersome radiobased stations.
With RTK corrections the 3DM-GQ7 can achieve centimeter-level positional accuracy.

MSCL™ API and MIP SDK
The MicroStrain Communication Library (MSCL) is our open-sourced API that simplifies writing code to interact with our sensors. MIP SDK is a lightweight C/C++ library for interacting with MicroStrain G and C-series products via bare-metal and resource constrained microcontrollers.
Both APIs are readily available and fully-documented on GitHub, featuring valuable tools such as full documentation, example code, and a quick start guide.

MicroStrain offers an open source, license-free (MIT License) series of actively supported drivers specifically designed and tested for Robot Operating System (ROS).
Use ROS for building and simulating robotics applications, unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) and simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM).

Seamless cloud-based network RTK corrections. Plug and play functionality with our 3DM-RTK modem allows for fast, easy deployment across the globe.
