Wheel Odometer

Large Wheel Odometer

The large wheel odometer is typically used on rough terrains. It is easily integrated into custom configurations for unique environments or research. The durable optical encoder is fully enclosed allowing it to operate in adverse conditions.

Small Wheel Odometer

The small wheel odometer is typically used on smooth surfaces like concrete floors. The compact size of this accessory allows it to be integrated into custom deployments of Noggin systems.

2, 3, 5, 7, 10 & 30 m Cables

These cables connect the Noggin to the DVL. Each end is equipped with a rugged latch to ensure a strong connection, even when the system is deployed in rough conditions. The DVL end of the cable has a power supply cable that is terminated with an XLR connector. The Noggin end of the cable provides a port for odometers.

GPS

Add an external GPS to your Noggin®. Noggin® systems are designed to allow any GPS receiver that outputs NMEA strings across a 9-pin serial cable to connect to the DVL-500. Various GPS models can be used depending on the accuracy required by your application.
The SmartCart has an optional GPS mount to deploy the GPS receiver right above the Noggin sensor. The SmartChariot and SmartSled have a built-in GPS mount. For the SmartTow deployment consider the GPS Backpack shown below.
