Accurate, low-power and very cost-effective
Digital Magnetic Compass
Prime Pro
A new digital magnetic compass that’s half the size and twice as robust as our standard Prime DMC. It delivers field-accurate heading, pitch, and roll data, even where GPS is compromised or unavailable – with 1º of accuracy.
At less than half the size of other digital compasses, the new Low SWaP-C Prime Pro is more robust, consumes less power, and is pinpoint accurate over time.
Embedded with tried and tested algorithms, Prime Pro delivers in-field 1º of heading and 0.5° of tilt accuracy.
Ideal for laser range finders, ADCPs, buoys, drilling or oceanography systems.
Prime Pro is extremely low power, easy to integrate and is very cost-effective.
