EMCORE’s Fiber Optic Gyroscope (FOG) technology is designed for fast, accurate
navigation and gyrocompassing, and low noise line-of-sight stabilization. Our
long-standing leadership in the development of highly-accurate defense and
military grade fiber optic components and systems has paved the way for the
development of more accurate and economical fiber optic gyro components.
EMCORE’s FOGs are setting the new benchmark for tactical and navigational
grade gyros for a wide variety of guidance, navigation and aeronautics
applications.
EMCORE’s EMP-1 Fiber Optic Gyro features fully-integrated optics and electronics,
and is a superior device in regards to weight and form-factor for tactical
applications. Its advanced integrated optics and closed-loop Digital Signal
Processing (DSP) delivers much higher accuracy, lower noise, and greater efficiency
than competing technologies. The integrated DSP also improves optical drift
stability, environmental flexibility and increases linearity. In addition, the EMP-1
can be calibrated internally for better thermal effect and has both digital and
analog outputs to accommodate the widest variety of installation parameters.
EMCORE’s EMP-1 is the clear choice when selecting a precision solid-state
gyroscope component for tactical grade applications.
