EMCORE Awarded $1.1M Development Contract for High-End Tactical-Grade Inertial Measurement Unit
This custom IMU will be based on EMCORE’s proprietary closed-loop Fiber Optic Gyro (FOG) technology that delivers proven CSWaP (Cost, Size, Weight, and Power) and performance advantages over other FOGs and competing technologies. It is designed to deliver the highest level of performance in EMCORE’s tactical IMU product line, exceeding EMCORE’s EN-300. EMCORE’s FOG IMU technology delivers 10X the bias performance of legacy systems in compact form, fit, and function compatible packages.
“We are extremely pleased to be selected for this program to develop a high-performance IMU for these demanding applications,” said
“This agreement with one of our most important customers is another key design win for our Navigation business,” commented
