VBOX 3i
VBOX 3i 100Hz
RLVB3i

VBOX 3i is the most powerful GPS data logging system built by Racelogic. Using a new GPS engine, VBOX 3i logs data 100 times a second, and features a 400MHz power PC processor. With IMU integration, USB and Bluetooth connectivity, compact flash card logging, and audio functionality for voice tagging, VBOX 3i represents a flexible solution to a range of testing requirements.

For accurate testing even in areas where view of the sky is obstructed, VBOX 3i has the ability to take the information from a Racelogic IMU (inertial measurement unit), pictured below, and combine this with the GPS data in real time to improve the quality of the measured parameters. The three accelerometers and three gyros inside the IMU are used to keep track of the attitude of the vehicle and will greatly increase the velocity and position accuracy during periods when satellite visibility is poor.
