Inertial navigation unit of French IRBM S3 IMUs work, in part, by detecting changes in pitch, roll, and yaw. An inertial measurement unit works by detecting linear acceleration using one or more accelerometers and rotational rate using one or more gyroscopes. [3] Some also include a magnetometer which is commonly used as a heading reference.
An inertial navigation system (INS; also inertial guidance system, inertial instrument) is a navigation device that uses motion sensors (accelerometers), rotation sensors and a computer to continuously calculate by dead reckoning the position, the orientation, and the velocity (direction and speed of movement) of a moving object without the ...
The LN-4 is a miniature inertial system for "a manned orbital vehicle" [15] The LN-5 is a (1963)"state of the art experimentation astro-inertial system installed in a Convair 340 R4Y ". [16] The LN-7C is the inertial component of the AN/ASN-53 stellar-inertial-Doppler system used on RC-135C aircraft in the late 1960s, early 1970s. [17]
Kijiji's owner was also a minority shareholder in Craigslist.In April 2008, eBay launched a lawsuit against Craigslist claiming that their executives were attempting to weaken eBay's investment, while in May of the same year, Craigslist filed a counter suit claiming Kijiji had stolen trade secrets and that eBay used misleading tactics to promote the service.
An inertial reference unit (IRU) is a type of inertial sensor which uses gyroscopes (electromechanical, ring laser gyro or MEMS) and accelerometers (electromechanical or MEMS) to determine a moving aircraft’s or spacecraft’s change in rotational attitude (angular orientation relative to some reference frame) and translational position (typically latitude, longitude and altitude) over a ...
An Air Data Inertial Reference Unit (ADIRU) is a key component of the integrated Air Data Inertial Reference System (ADIRS), which supplies air data (airspeed, angle of attack and altitude) and inertial reference (position and altitude) information to the pilots' electronic flight instrument system displays as well as other systems on the aircraft such as the engines, autopilot, aircraft ...

20:26, 4 September 2007 (UTC) The above are correct. An IMU refers to the sensors (typically accels and gyros, hence Inertial Measurement Unit). An INS refers to compilation of many sensors (One or more IMUs, GPS receiver, etc.) and the accompanying software to generate estimated acceleration, velocity, and position (hence Inertial Navigation System).
