SpacePoint
Take your motion tracking controller a giant step forward with PNI's revolutionary SpacePoint™ technology. By enabling the creation of controllers with true, 360˚ pointing accuracy, full-range-of-motion tracking and no perceivable lag-time, SpacePoint technology provides an unbeatably accurate interface for high-speed gaming controllers, and other motion-tracking devices such as novel remote controllers and augmented reality headwear.
Reference Magnetic Sensor Suites
The highest accuracy sensors in their class, PNI's patented Reference Magnetic Sensor Suites deliver high performance resolution and repeatability with extremely low noise. The Reference Magnetic Sensor Suites have a wide field measurement range, superior noise immunity, no hysteresis, and are extremely stable over temperature. All this comes with the lowest power consumption in the industry.
Unlike magneto-resistive sensors, PNI’s Reference Magnetic Sensor Suites do not require temperature calibration nor high current set-and-reset pauses before each measurement. Hence, they are simple to design in, and peak current requirement is dramatically reduced. It isn’t surprising that this patented technology has been proven across a wide spectrum of applications, including motion tracking, compassing, robotics and targeting.
CompassPoint
The CompassPoint family of cost-effective, low-power consumption compasses harnesses the existing power of Earth's magnetic field to measure orientation in 2 or 3 dimensions. All CompassPoint modules incorporate PNI's magnetic distortion correction to ensure accurate heading measurements when installed in the host system. And because they typically use 2 to 3 times less power than comparable sensor modules, they're perfect for applications in which power sources are few and far between. CompassPoint modules represent exceptional values and are ideal components for cost-sensitive products that historically could not justify such well-featured digital compasses, such as laser range finders, sonobuoys, wind sensing equipment, and acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCPs).
FieldForce
The FieldForce family of tilt-compensated heading and orientation modules provides unparalleled 3-axis orientation performance. Combining PNI's patented magnetic sensing technology with a 3-axis accelerometer, PNI's proprietary algorithms compensate for tilt in the heading readings and correct for local magnetic distortions, allowing for the most accurate compass heading measurements available. FieldForce modules include electronic gimballing, allowing them to be mounted at virtually any orientation or position. Even in the most demanding conditions and environments, PNI FieldForce products deliver unmatched performance, making them ideal for applications such as high-performance ROV navigation, targeting systems, GPS system integration, vehicle sensing and tracking, drilling applications, robotics, and more.
Legacy TCM
PNI will continue to build and support these TCM's, but for new designs, the FieldForce or the CompassPoint products are recommended. The legacy TCMs include the TCM2.5, TCM2.6, TCM3, TCM5 and TCM5LT.
Legacy MicroMag
PNI will continue to build and support these MicroMag products, but for new designs, the FieldForce High-Performance Digital Compass or the CompassPoint Digital Compass products are recommended. Legacy MicroMags include the MicroMag2 and the MicroMag3.
