High-Precision Intrinsic Calibration
Optimize your VectorNav IMU's internal sensor performance with comprehensive intrinsic calibration that corrects for unit-specific variations beyond factory specifications. MetriCal precisely determines accelerometer and gyroscope bias parameters, scale factors, misalignment corrections, and cross-axis sensitivities specific to your VN-100, VN-200, or VN-300 unit. This individual sensor calibration is essential for applications requiring the highest accuracy - such as aerospace navigation, precision surveying, or autonomous marine operations - where even small sensor errors can compound into significant navigation drift over time.
Multi-Sensor Navigation System Integration
Achieve seamless integration between your VectorNav IMU and other navigation sensors through precise extrinsic calibration that enables robust sensor fusion. MetriCal automatically computes exact spatial relationships between your IMU and cameras for visual-inertial navigation, LiDAR sensors for SLAM applications, or a camera array. Whether you're building aerospace guidance systems, marine autonomous vehicles, or high-precision mapping platforms, our calibration provides the foundation for navigation algorithms that leverage the full capability of VectorNav's advanced inertial processing alongside complementary sensor modalities.
Mission-Critical Deployment Standards
Deploy VectorNav-based navigation systems with the reliability and accuracy standards demanded by aerospace, marine, and defense applications. MetriCal's calibration workflows are designed to support the rigorous validation requirements of safety-critical systems, generating detailed calibration reports and quality metrics that demonstrate sensor performance compliance. The system integrates with VectorNav's native software tools and standard navigation interfaces, ensuring calibrated parameters seamlessly transfer to your flight control systems, autonomous navigation stacks, or precision guidance applications while maintaining full traceability for certification requirements.
