Motion Reference Unit (MRU)

The Motion Reference Unit (MRU) is a solid state motion reference device capable of measuring Pitch and Roll to a high degree of accuracy. The MRU can be mounted in either a horizontal or vertical position. The output string from the MRU is a serial format, either RS232 or RS422, and follows the standard NMEA format. The MRU is available as submersible unit or in an OEM version. The MRU also features static references that are traceable to international standards.
