Our client is a market-leading provider of integrated solutions that increase situational understanding for transportation, defence C4ISR and training customers worldwide.
Challenge
Our client, a Global technology provider, is currently looking for a small (deck of cards sized) device which will be appended to a metallic object being carried by a human being in outdoor and indoor environments.
The device will be capable of reporting angular orientation of object by 1 mrd (milliradian) or better. The device must be able to communicate orientation data wirelessly to a nearby (local) receiver using industry standard protocols.
Solution must adhere to the below requirements:
- 3DOF (roll, pitch, yaw) or 6DOF (3DOF plus position x,y,z) device orientation at target 1mrd accuracy or better in live training environment
- Accurate in the presence of metal, noise, and vibrations > 6g
- Small (size of deck of cards)
- Wireless connectivity (BLE, WiFi, UWB or other industry standard). Needs to communicate with a smart phone
- Target update rate minimum every 100ms
- At least 14 days of usage without recalibration
- Environmentally sealed, temperature range -40C to 65C
- Cost < $1,000 at production
- Minimize any external sensors/devices
