Pre-Tilted Gyro-Sensor for In-Dash Navigation Systems

Epson Toyocom has developed a pre-tilted gyro-sensor that can be installed in car navigation systems. As the latest addition to the XV-8000 series, the XV-8000LK is ideal for dead reckoning, a method used in car navigation to determine position. The sensor is assembled with a pre-tilt angle in the package. This pre-tilt offers greater flexibility in determining the installation angle. The XV-8000LK is available in two types. One type has a tilt angle of 10 degrees, and the other has a tilt angle of 20 degrees.
