Sensor Maintains Safe vehicle Operation
Description
A two-in-one device combining the functionality of a GPS and an IMU, the GFX machine dynamics sensor provides the ability to monitor machine location, speed, acceleration, direction, tilt, pitch, and roll
The device monitors machine dynamics data that can be used to help maintain safe vehicle operation and maximize efficiency. For example, the acceleration, angular rate, and magnetic field data can help avoid rollover accidents on uneven terrain, while true ground speed data and geopositioning can help optimize operations such as seeding, harvesting, and earthmoving.
As a two-in-one device, the GFX eliminates the need to source and integrate multiple components. It also offers space and cost savings over the separate devices that would be needed to perform the same functions.
With a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 85°C, the GFX machine dynamics sensor is ideal for the rugged environments in which off-highway equipment operates. The device also features a dustproof and waterproof design rated to IP67, making it suitable for open-cab machinery.
