Discover more about the advanced products offered by LITEF below: 

B-290

The B-290 is a compact MEMS accelerometer that is ideal for users looking to built their own inertial sensors for military and defense applications, and is available in several variants to suit a range of requirements.

µCORS

The µCORS MEMS rotation rate sensor provides a reliable and cost-effective alternative to comparable FOG sensors, delivering high-precision output data even under high levels of shock and vibration. Temperature-compensated angular rate, angle increment or accumulated angle data can be output via various interface options, allowing the sensor to be easily integrated into a range of platforms.

µFORS

The compact and lightweight µFORS fibre optic rate sensor has been designed specifically for challenging battlefield conditions in all domains, and delivers compensated angle or rotation rate data via an asynchronous or synchronous digital IBIS interface. The ultra-reliable low-SWAP sensor has no moving parts, making it highly resistant to shock and vibration, and requires no periodic maintenance.

Land Navigator Systems

LITEF’s Land Navigator systems provide uninterrupted positioning and heading information for crews and guidance systems of tanks, armoured personnel carriers, and other military vehicles, and have been successfully deployed on board the Leopard 2 main battle tank. Supporting a range of NATO and commercial external GPS receivers, the hybrid inertial systems ensure reliable navigation even during jamming attacks.
