Silicon Sensing Systems’ high-performance DMU30 micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS) inertial measurement unit (IMU) has been selected by the Institute for Q-shu Pioneers of Space, Inc. (iQPS) of Fukuoka, Japan, for the control system of Japan’s first X-band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) small satellite. This is a 1m resolution, high-performance, X-band SAR-satellite weighing only 100Kg. Ultimately, iQPS […]

Silicon Sensing develops inertial measurement systems for the space market
Two all-silicon inertial measurement systems, developed to meet the specific demands of the small satellite and launch vehicle markets, will be exhibited at Space Tech Expo, 2019 by Silicon Sensing Systems Ltd. The new RMU30 combines below one-watt power consumption with performance that is comparable to much larger and higher consumption fiber optic-based gyro systems. […]
