SignalQuest Presents Rugged, Fully Calibrated Tilt Sensor Capable of Accurate Angle Measurement in the Presence of High Vibration, Shock and Linear Acceleration.

Lebanon, NH (November 13, 2012) – SignalQuest, Inc. today introduced the SQ-GIX Dynamic Inclinometer, a fully calibrated device incorporating aerospace grade sensors, and algorithms, purpose built to be simple, affordable and reliable for harsh industrial applications.

With calibration through a full industrial temperature range, the SQ-GIX Dynamic Inclinometer effectively removes the need for a costly IMU or AHRS for angle measurement in environments experiencing vibration, shock, or linear acceleration. Traditional tilt sensors are unstable and inaccurate for angle measurement during motion. The SQ-GIX Dynamic Inclinometer is effectively a drop-in replacement for conventional inclinometers, without the tradeoff between stability and response time found in existing sensors.

SQ-GIX sensors stem from SignalQuest’s SQ-RPS family of rugged packaged inertial sensors that brings US manufacturing standards at globally competitive prices to calibrated inertial sensor markets. The SQ-GIX is specifically designed, tested, and qualified to meet the unique environmental operating requirements of commercial, construction, agricultural and mining vehicles.
