Short for "Internal Navigation System". It is a navigation system comprised of a gyro, precision accelerometer, a computer, and does not need an external guiding electronic wave. After setting the alignment of longitude and latitude, and having this system interlocked with the automatic operation system, flight to the destination can be automated.

Inertial Navigation System onboard ER-2

nertial avigation ystem A self-contained navigational system which uses precision mechanical or LASER gyroscopes to keep accurate track of a craft's movements.

Inertial Navigation System. See Chapter 6.

Inertial Navigation System. Navigation box which senses platform accelerations to measure velocity and derive position.

Inertial Navigation System- Very accurate navigation device

Inertial Navigation System. Using a series of orthogonally mounted accelerometers which detect changes from straight line motion, this device provides a self contained and independent method by which it can determine positional changes from a starting point. INS units are extensively used in spacecraft, ships and aircraft.

Inertial navigation system; measures all accelerations on aircraft; calculates present

inertial navigation system. A gyroscope-based system which senses acceleration and deceleration and computes an aircraft's position in latitude and longitude with great accuracy. Used mostly by long-haul airliners, military aircraft and sophisticated business jets. Also IRS, inertial reference system.

inertial navigation system -- method of measuring all accelerations imparted by an aircraft and integrating them with respect to time to give a continuous read-out of velocity and with a second time integration also giving present position relative to the point of origin
