GPS vehicle testing now more reliable with new IMU integration system

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 10, 2011 -- In open spaces, GPS is acknowledged as being the most accurate method for measuring velocity, but under bridges or near trees, the quality degrades. However, this is set to change with the release of the VBOX IMU Integration system.

Blending data from an Inertial Measurement Unit with GPS signals from a VBOX 3i GPS datalogger, IMU integration helps to produce smoother, more dynamic measurements on channels including velocity, heading, position, and acceleration in areas where sky visibility is obstructed.

Kevin Bursnall, Technical Director at Racelogic, said: “IMU integration realises the high accuracies that VBOX 3i can achieve even when external conditions are compromised, meaning that data is now more reliable and easier to interpret.”
