navigation > Compass - Gyro or Fibre Optic Gyro
MES offers complete heading reference systems including all heading and bearing repeaters to make a fully IMO compliant solution. The heading sensor might be a traditional spinning mass gyro compass or a fibre optic or ring laser gyrocompass or a dual compass system to offer redundancy. This might be part of an inertial navigation system or a AHRS (Attitude and Heading Reference System)feeding various outputs to a combat system as well as an integrated bridge system. We can provide bespoke solutions from a combination of makers to optimise the system for your application.
