About Inertial Navigation Systems
Inertial navigation systems (INS) are highly complex navigation aids that are integrated to other vessel management systems used on aircrafts, rockets, marine vessels, and other aerial vehicles. An INS consists of computers, accelerometers, gyroscopes, and uses the process of dead reckoning to determine the attitude (position, orientation, and velocity) of the moving object. Major end-customers of these systems hail from both the Defense and Commercial sectors with airlines and space research organizations being some of them.
TechNavio's analysts forecast the Global Managed Services market to grow at a CAGR of 10.69 percent over the period 2013-2018.
Covered in this Report
The INS can be categorized into the following six types based on technology: mechanical gyroscope-based INS, RLG-based INS, FOG-based INS, MEMS-based INS, HRG-based INS, and vibrating gyroscope-based INS. The majority of the systems are used for defense applications.
