Inertial Labs has integrated the FT743-D-SM Acoustic Resonance air speed sensor from FT Technologies into its inertial navigation systems (INS), enhancing the accuracy of horizontal air speed estimation for multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), particularly in GPS-denied environments.

The sensor, which provides precise measurements of air speed from any direction, reduces position drift compared to traditional inertial/dead Reckoning methods.

This development is seen as a significant step forward in providing high-accuracy navigation solutions for clients.
