AVIATION

Applications

Whether fixed-wing or rotary-wing aircraft, whether manned or unmanned, balloon or satellite, we have the
right systems for navigation, guidance, stabilization, target tracking and more.

Where needed, we take our highly precise inertial measurement systems to the limits of technical feasibility.
In addition to standard applications, these are also employed by countless international scientific institu-
tions, in combination with dedicated scientific sensors and assemblies, for challenging tasks such as highly
accurate flight surveys of the polar ionosphere or for precise aerogravimetry. Even so, our systems are so
light as well as reliable, that an ultralight solar driven aircraft with an one-man crew has in fact circled the
entire globe with our systems during 2015/2016. Another success story among many others, is the World
Competition in Aerobatic Flight (RedBull AirRace), where the German MD21 team, which used the most
accurate and trustable iMAR Navigation measurement data for flight trajectory optimization, became World
Champion 2016, with the highest competitive edge ever.
