The Solid State Heading Sensor™ (SSHS™) is a Solid State Rate/Gyro Compass that uses innovative electromagnetic technology for highly accurate, stable readouts of your ship’s heading.

Solid State Heading Sensor incorporates solid-state accelerometers and a solid-state angular rate sensor for indicating the vessel’s attitude and rate of turn.

The Solid State Heading Sensor detects terrestrial magnetism and produces compass data that can be utilized in NMEA0183 and NMEA 2000® formats. Typical applications include radar echo trail, autopilots, digital chart plotters, sounder devices and more.

Using the Solid State Heading Sensor can significantly improve the stability of your radar/chart overlay, target acquisition, calculation of target-tracking data, and your autopilot performance.

Contained within a rugged, compact case that protects against harsh marine environments, the Solid State Heading Sensor is designed to be virtually maintenance free and easy to install!
