iATTHEMO-TRIDENT: Advanced Marine and Navy Gyro Compass Systems
Three marine functionalities unified in a single maintenance-free device
iATTHEMO-TRIDENT
The iATTHEMO-TRIDENT unifies the most important Marine Navigation functionalities (ATTitude, HEading, MOtion) in a single device. It comprises a maintenance-free 6-axis gyro compass and optionally comes with an integrated GNSS. Its superior performance, low life-time costs and reliable construction make it perfectly suited for all navigational, control, stabilization and surveying functions.
iATTHEMO-TRIDENT comes beside of the standard marine interfaces additionally with full iXCOM protocol communication and is supported by iMAR's iXCOM-CMD GUI (under MS Windows and Linux) and Python interface.
iATTHEMO-TRIDENT is suitable for marine, naval and drillship / dynamic positioning (DP) applications.
Features of iATTHEMO-TRIDENT:
- Very fast settling time even in rough seas for gyro compassing.
- Proven European RLG technology provides high MTBF (> 100,000 h for the inertial sensor core).
- on request type-approved to marine directives (IMO + IMO-HSC).
- Real-time output with exceptional low latency and jitter on true heading, roll, pitch, surge, sway, heave, acceleration, rate of turn, which all are available also in GNSS denied environment.
- Position and Speed over Ground (SOG) available with GNSS (GPS / GLONASS / GALILEO / Beidou etc.) as well as in "free inertial" mode. DVL aiding (Doppler velocity log) available on request.
- The integrated computation power and the available interfaces allows also to provide a complete roll stabilization of vessels.
- iATTHEMO is not subject to any ITAR export regulations.
- Perfectly suited for any newbuilds & retrofits, especially also with iMAR & Kwant Controls Tightly Integrated System for Mono-hulls & High-Speed Crafts.
- With iATTHEMO-TRIDENT-Rx a version with extended true heading accuracy and superior, unmatched on-the-fly self-diagnosis and calibration capability is available. With ring laser gyros it contains most accurate and most reliable inertial sensors.
- with iATTHEMO/TLN and iATTHEMO/TLE MEMS based Motion Reference Units (MRU) are available e.g. for fast ferry ride control and other stabilization and guidance tasks for marine vessels. They are successors of the traditional iATTHEMO-M device, with faster processor, advanced navigation algorithms, new hardware etc.
- With iATTHEMO-TRIDENT-F a FOG based MRU (motion Reference Unit) incl. gyro compassing capability is available.
- Made in Germany - only the standard German export laws apply.
Note:
In compliance with our proven design philosophy and our technical code of conduct for development, production, and quality assurance of our products and solutions, only physics determines the behavior of iMAR’s measurement systems. The real-time output of our systems and solutions in the inertial signal path is achieved through the intelligent signal processing developed by our experienced engineers – not by artificial intelligence (AI).
Why?
We cannot recommend that integrators or users entrust the success of critical or general missions in inertial navigation, stabilization or control to the heuristic decisions of AI.
Rely on the high reliability, accuracy, and availability of iMAR solutions, as well as on the leading INS/GNSS/+ expertise and experience of our engineering team in Germany. This is based on our mathematically and physically precise algorithms, traceable results, our sensor, hardware, and algorithm design, and our production facilities, which are certified to military and aviation standards.
Note: We apply AI methods in signal processing where they provide benefits for the application (e.g., for improving image or scenario analysis). However, our highest priority is mission safety – even in so-called corner cases of applications, where AI is typically not sufficiently trained.
