Complete Functionality Range

From IMU to GNSS/INS + RTK, the MTi 600-Series covers the full spectrum of motion sensing needs. Choose exactly what you need: orientation, navigation, or centimeter-level positioning.

Proven & Trusted Worldwide

Used across drones, robotics, marine, and defense projects, the MTi 600-Series has earned its place as one of the most popular industrial motion sensors in the market.

OEM or Rugged Options

Integrate it seamlessly as a lightweight OEM module, or go for the ready-to-deploy Rugged housing for use in outdoor or mobile platforms. Both versions deliver the same trusted Xsens performance and calibration quality.

Development Kits for fast evaluation

Get started right away with our Development Kits, available for both AHRS and GNSS/INS (RTK) models. Each kit includes all the accessories and software to let you test and integrate in minutes. For crititcal GNSS applications, we provide a special MTi-680 DK, equipped with a Septentrio Mosaic-X5 GNSS receiver, offering anti-jamming and anti-spoofing capabilities.

Series Lineup
