InertiaCube3

Intersense IC3The InertiaCube3 (IC3) is designed to meet the demands of a mobile, sourceless, 3-DOF sensor. With an aluminum package, broader operating temperature range and low power consumption, the InertiaCube3 is ideal for head or body tracking in mobile simulation, training and situational awareness applications.

Along with the InterSense software developers kit (SDK), the InertiaCube3 comes with heading calibration software providing compensation for static magnetic field distortions when deployed in adverse environments.

Key Features

  • World’s smallest inertial orientation reference system (26.2 mm x 39.2 mm x 14.8 mm).
  • Full integration of nine sensing elements ensures maximum accuracy, sensitivity and stability.
  • Sourceless tracking provides full 360º range and eliminates line-of-sight restrictions.
  • MagCal™ software for in-situ static, magnetic field compensation.
  • Monolithic electronic design for superior alignment accuracy.
  • Connects directly to the PC’s RS-232 serial connector or USB port with optional USB adaptor.
  • 180 Hertz update rate eliminates tracker induced lag.
  • Motion prediction, adjustable rotational sensitivity and control of output data filtering allows fine tuning for specific applications.
  • Windows 98, 2000, NT, XP, and CE dynamic link library available.
  • PC Software interfaces up to 4 InertiaCube2's to application (libraries can support up to 32 sensors).
  • Linux, IRIX and Mac OS X shared object libraries available.
  • PC Software interfaces up to 32 InertiaCube3's to application.
  • Windows control and connectivity software provides sensor configuration, network interface and joystick emulation.
  • Supports a standard I2C interface bus allowing custom wireless button, indicator or analog interfaces for OEM applications .
