Garmin Announces New High Performance Heading Sensor

Garmin is pleased to offer a new high performance heading sensor. When using this three-axis compass heading sensor with Garmin’s marine lineup of chartplotters and radars, mariners can expect unparalleled radar overlay performance and accuracy, along with excellent MARPA capabilities.

This heading sensor uses rate gyros in all three axes, so it can maintain an exceptional 2° heading accuracy under heavy dynamic conditions, with up to 30° of pitch and roll.

In addition, it supports either NMEA 0183 or NMEA 2000 data output to fit any installation. Installation is a snap thanks to the heading sensor’s innovative design, allowing it to mount to any angled bulkhead.
