LSI has designed and custom-built pods
and plates to accommodate various sensor configurations for different
aircraft installations. Each sensor plate utilizes vibration isolation
technology in an effort to minimize the effects of vibration unique
to each aircraft. The
primary sensors that are mounted on the plate are a scanning laser, IMU and
digital camera. The sensor plate offsets and lever-arm
vector (GPS antenna phase center to IMU center) are precisely measured
with millimeter-level accuracy using conventional survey techniques.
