Microbot Autopilot - UAV and RC Autopilot GPS INS
The Microbot AP is a new autopilot designed to simplify
the operation of unmanned vehicles. With emphasis on tight integration,
high reliability, and maximum flexibility, the Microbotics
autopilot enables rapid testing of autonomous UAV and RC autopilot systems and provides
a production system at a competitive price.
The Microbotics Autopilot includes the MIDG II INS/GPS, which provides a
complete inertial solution for use in RC and UAV Autopilot
applications. Other UAV and RC autopilot systems might appear to be smaller and
weigh less, but the Microbotics Autopilot includes the ability to drive
up to 30 servos, has 12 analog inputs for measurement application
(fuel, battery power, altitude, airspeed, etc.), supports a memory card
(SD card) for real-time data recording, and has a built-in wireless
transceiver - all of this in a single integrated package.
Application Overview
UAV Autopilot
UAV and RC autopilot systems are now being used for aerial surveillance in local police action and for border control. The Microbot AP is currently being used to provide autopilot capabilities to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV)
for various U.S. government departments and contractors in the defense industry.

Microbot Autopilot - UAV and RC Autopilot GPS INS Features:
- Small size (2.63" W x 2.10" H x 2.63"D)
- 30 fully
programmable digital I/O lines
- 4 RS-232, full duplex UARTS
- PWM inputs and outputs for servo control
- 12 Analog inputs
(12 bit)
- 5 VDC supply for analog, Hall-effect, or other
sensors
- 32-bit RISC processor
- Onboard non-volatile
FRAM for external sensor calibration, waypoint storage, etc.
- Optional
internally mounted MIDG II INS/GPS sensor
- Internal wireless modem with up to 20 mile range
- SD
memory card slot for real-time data recording
Fully Programmable I/O -- the 30 digital I/O pins are
user programmable and can be defined as general purpose in/out signals or
connected to one of the internal peripheral functions. The digital I/O
system is based on a programmable gate array, so that application
specific peripherals can be added with a simple firmware upgrade. This
allows the autopilot to support SPI, CAN, and other peripherals as
needed.
