Zero Point Motion’s high performance inertial sensors are chipscale, low-noise and affordable. Our Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) look the same as standard chips used in drones, cars and robots, but brings a 100x performance improvement that has so far been inaccessible for mass volume markets. We use a cutting-edge technology called cavity optomechanics that exploits the sensitive relationship between laser light and motion, which results in lower noise than existing methods. Our IMUs will be the world's 1st commercial optomechanical inertial sensors with 100x lower noise than existing solutions in the market. With our IMUs, drones will be able to fly autonomously underground to survey tunnels, AR/VR motion capture will be even more immersive, and navigating inside buildings will become possible. Moreover, our sensors enable sub-millimeter positioning accuracy and allow for over 5x longer duration of navigation without GPS due to the reduced noise that results in slower buildup of errors over time.

零点运动的高性能惯性传感器是芯片级，低噪音和负担得起的。我们的惯性测量单元（伊穆斯）看起来与无人机、汽车和机器人中使用的标准芯片相同，但性能提升了100倍，这是迄今为止大众市场无法企及的。我们使用一种称为腔光学力学的尖端技术，该技术利用激光与运动之间的敏感关系，从而比现有方法产生更低的噪声。我们的伊穆斯将成为世界上第一个商用光机械惯性传感器，其噪声比市场上现有的解决方案低100倍。有了我们的伊穆斯，无人机将能够在地下自主飞行，以调查隧道，AR/VR动作捕捉将更加身临其境，建筑物内导航将成为可能。此外，我们的传感器能够实现亚毫米级的定位精度，并允许在没有GPS的情况下将导航持续时间延长5倍以上，因为噪声降低了，随着时间的推移，误差的累积速度会变慢。
