When navigating the complexities of motion sensing and navigation systems, it is essential to understand the distinctions between devices and systems like Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs), Inclinometers, Roll & Pitch sensors, Vertical Reference Units (VRU), Attitude and Heading Reference Systems (AHRS), Motion Reference Units (MRUs), Gyrocompasses, and GNSS-Aided Inertial Navigation Systems (GNSS/INS). Each serves specific purposes and offers different levels of functionality, accuracy, and application scope.

Each serves specific purposes and offers different levels of functionality, accuracy, and application scope.
Inclinometer
Although an Inclinometer, Roll & Pitch Sensor, and VRU all measure attitude (roll and pitch), they vary significantly in accuracy, capabilities, and ideal applications:
The MRU supports the following Ethernet protocols:

Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
Your MRU can be mounted almost anywhere on your vessel and in any orientation, but there are some guidelines you can follow to ensure the absolute highest accuracy of measurements from your device:
