Built to withstand the demanding applications

TARS-B

The TARS-B Series joins Honeywell’s venerated sensor portfolio, adding to the ever-increasing connected and intelligence-driven capabilities that Honeywell offers.

ABOUT TARS-B

The Transportation Attitude Reference System (TARS-IMU) is a packaged sensor array designed to report vehicle angular rate, acceleration, and attitude data for demanding applications in industries such as heavy-duty, off-highway transportation.

The TARS-IMU enables autonomous vehicle characteristics and enhances efficiency and productivity by reporting key data required to automate and monitor movements of vehicle systems and components. The sensor fusion algorithm may be customized for specific vehicle applications via on-board firmware, allowing movement data to be filtered for extraneous environment and vehicle movements.

The TARS-B Series joins Honeywell’s venerated sensor portfolio, adding to the ever-increasing connected and intelligence-driven capabilities that Honeywell offers. TARS-IMU is built to withstand the demanding applications in industries like off-highway transportation and beyond.

Potential applications: Wheel loader / excavator, construction vehicles, skid steer loader, recreational vehicles, defense ground vehicles.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

                         

Customization
The Configurator Tool (TCT) software allows end users to change selected parameters such as independently variable message broadcast rates, orientation, filter settings, etc. This tool creates a unique configuration file which is then uploaded to the TARS-IMU for implementation.

Reliable, Rugged and Durable
With top-of-the-line sealing (IP67, IP69K), the TARS-IMU is ruggedized to withstand harsh or heavy-duty applications, with customizable firmware that allows manufacturers to use a single part number across multiple vehicles.

Adaptable
With a wide operating voltage, the TARS-IMU can accommodate 9 V to 36 V vehicle power systems. Communication is transmitted using industry standard CAN J1939 connectivity. As a standard, TARS-IMU is calibrated on aerospace-grade rate tables at the factory to provide enhanced calibration consistency between units.

Value To Customers
Designed to allow vehicle manufacturers and end users increase efficiency with the automation of repetitive movements and complex tasks, enhances safety through monitoring and guidance capabilities to promote the productivity of operators.
