SBG Systems
Develops and manufactures inertial navigation systems, IMUs, and motion sensing solutions for mapping, marine, UAV, and robotics uses.
SBG Systems designs, manufactures, and supports a broad range of inertial navigation and motion sensing solutions based on MEMS technology. Its core products, inertial sensors and systems, provide position, orientation, velocity, motion, and stabilization data, with a strong focus on precision, reliability, and compact form factors. The company builds IMUs, AHRS/MRUs, INS systems, and OEM inertial systems, and it offers software to set up, refine, and post-process inertial and GNSS data. Those offerings suit challenging environments, including GNSS-denied conditions, tunnels, urban canyons, and other places where signal-independent navigation matters. The company serves several markets: geospatial, vehicles, defense, surveyors, robotics, autonomous systems, aerospace, marine, automotive, unmanned systems, and scientific research. For geospatial work, its solutions support mapping, surveying, positioning, georeferencing, and motion and orientation measurement. For vehicles and autonomous platforms, they provide accurate navigation and control. In defense, the systems handle navigation, guidance, and stabilization with reliable orientation data even when GNSS drops out. The technology reaches marine uses such as vessel motion monitoring, hydrography, buoy positioning, and control of ROVs and AUVs, and land applications such as rail, tram, excavator, and autonomous ferry positioning. A distinctive part of the business: MEMS-based inertial technology, dynamic calibration, and embedded algorithms. The company manufactures IMUs in France and calibrates them across the full temperature range. Its AHRS products integrate gyroscopes and accelerometers for compact, low-power operation, while its INS products deliver continuous position, velocity, and orientation data. It offers OEM sensors for customers with space constraints and a software suite, including Qinertia, to improve and post-process GNSS and inertial data. Integrations run to PX4, Ardupilot, and ROS, and the product lines take in Pulse-40 OEM, Stellar-40, Ekinox, Apogee, Quanta, Navsight, Ellipse, and the Ellipse Micro Series. Hardware and software ship together, with the inertial systems paired to the post-processing suite that refines the position, velocity and orientation data they record.
