The ASTRA Navsensor
The multifunctional ASTRA Navsensor is the gem of all sensors. The
inertial sensor complements the inbuilt satellite receiver module (GPS)
to provide accurate readings of the speed of travel as well as the pitch &
roll (up and down) and YAW (sideways) motion of the boat. Compass
readings can be displayed electronically thanks to the fluxgate, which
also facilitate course corrections in electronic autopilots.
The barometer and air temperature sensors are early indicators of
forthcoming weather conditions.
