PositionSense 9-Axis Sensor for GNSS Navigation Applications
March 4, 2025
TDK InvenSense's PositionSense 9-axis sensor is a synchronized IMU and compass solution providing high accuracy, ultra-low power, and strong magnetic shock resilience for navigation applications.
PositionSense is a 2-chip 9-axis sensor solution enabling advanced positioning accuracy for navigation, wearable, mobile, and AR/VR devices.
PositionSense integrates TDK's lowest-power 6-axis IMU and TMR-based 3-axis magnetometer with on-chip sensor fusion software and calibration software for fast and accurate orientation tracking. It integrates with TDK's PDR software for accuracy and power consumption, enabling geofencing and GNSS duty cycling.
The speed and precision of PositionSense's absolute orientation detection come from the integration of its components:
TDK 6-axis SmartMotion IMU, the lowest-power IMU with high-performance MEMS technology and vibration-resistant gyroscope
TDK 3-axis magnetometer, the lowest-power magnetometer with high sensitivity and accuracy, along with magnetic field shock resistance
TDK on-chip sensor fusion software, enabling fast and accurate 9-axis sensor calibration
TDK off-chip PDR software, with support for a variety of devices, platforms, and human motions
