Description

Overview

The MTi-670 GNSS/INS from Xsens is a Global Navigation Satellite System/Inertial Navigation System (GNSS/INS) with a small form-factor design for deep integration into your application. It is easy to use, enabling robust sub-meter level positioning and orientation tracking. Its interface to an external GNSS receiver means you can design your application with maximum efficiency. This GNSS/INS module is designed for easy integration and seamless interfacing with other equipment.

You can seamlessly integrate the MTi-670 in your application in two ways: either with the header facing down, directly mounted on a PCB, or as a standalone, with a flat cable for communication. It is also highly flexible, with native CAN support. The MTi-670 GNSS/INS comes as an industrial-grade, highly affordable MEMS-based orientation sensor with an integrated sensor fusion algorithm and an easy-to-use development kit.

The MT Software Suite is your key to working with the MTi-670. The suite contains a specially developed, easy-to-use graphical user interface, as well as drivers for various operating systems. It also offers many other useful tools, example source code and documentation. Among its software programs, you will find:

  • MT Manager (GUI)
  • MT SDK, including programming examples for C, C++, C#, MATLAB, Python, ROS and Nucleo boards
  • Magnetic Field Mapper (MFM) calibration tool, as GUI and SDK

Features

  • Small, IP51-rated GNSS/INS
  • 0.2 deg roll/pitch & sub-meter level position accuracy
  • Connects to external GNSS receiver
