Carrières-sur-Seine, March 10th, 2025 – SBG Systems is thrilled to announce the New Ellipse, a groundbreaking upgrade for the Ellipse product line. Whether you’re using an AHRS or INS version, this simple and free firmware upgrade transforms your trusted hardware into a more accurate, reliable, and versatile solution ready to tackle even the most demanding applications.

New Benchmark in precision and reliability

The New Ellipse sets a new benchmark in precision and reliability. Powered by the latest generation sensor fusion algorithm, it enhances navigation, attitude and heave performance, ensuring stable and accurate positioning even in high-dynamics environments and challenging conditions.

Advanced GNSS-denied capabilities

In addition, the New Ellipse introduces advanced GNSS-denied capabilities. It features newly integrated flags that trigger when GNSS jamming or spoofing threats are detected and allows you to reject or re-enable external sensors—such as GNSS—without needing to reset the filter. This gives you enhanced visibility and control over how your system responds to these events, allowing for more precise adjustments in challenging environments.

User-friendly features for simplified system integration

Designed with the user in mind, the New Ellipse offers several new features that simplify system integration. It now supports seamless configuration and interfacing via a robust RESTful API, making it easier than ever for developers and integrators to unlock the full potential of the device. The user-friendly interface allows for fast and flexible configuration using simple command lines, enabling you to tailor the Ellipse to your specific needs and applications quickly and efficiently.

Free firmware upgrade for compatible hardware

The firmware upgrade is now available at no additional cost to all users of compatible hardware (v3.x). To take advantage of these updates, customers can follow the simple upgrade instructions available on our website.
