About
Lodestone enables complementary attitude determination and motion sensing for nanosatellites and other space systems. It integrates a 3-axis magnetometer, gyroscope, and accelerometer into one compact, space-ready module with a unified interface, and has flown on 3 or more CubeSat missions. A higher-performance Lodestone NEO version is also available.
