VPS-X Gyro SNG Antenna System
In the mid 1990’s IGP’s VPS-II led the satellite industry into automated acquisition, using GPS and electronic compass. Now IGP’s VPS-X Gyro represents the next major technological breakthrough: the VPS-X Gyro is the first system with a highly accurate GPS supported Gyro system replacing the electronic compass.
The VPS-X Gyro is also the first antenna system that uses stepper motors for azimuth, elevation and polarization. These stepper motors increase precision, reliability and speed.
Thanks to these innovations IGP’s VPS-X Gyro system is able to achieve 0.2 degrees accuracy in azimuth; taking the dish straight to the desired satellite:

Coach Building
IGP’s position as a leading innovator in satellite technology is also being recognized in coach building designs. Designs that make the most out of the limited outer dimensions of SNG vehicles. In many cases the same ergonomic conditions are created as found in normal studio conditions.
Most IGP designs are based on Volkswagen Transporter 4x4, Mercedes Sprinter and Mercedes Trucks.
Hybrid Electrical Systems and power saving redundancy modes mostly avoid the use of a separate generator.

Teleport Services
IGP provides international teleport services.
Satellite Networks
IGP designs and builds comprehensive satellite and LTE based IP networks for fixed, portable and On-The-Move applications, leveraging more than 30 years of experience in advanced tracking and control technologies. IGP also provides ultra secure connectivity services through its teleports in Amsterdam, Cyprus and Toronto.
Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence plays an important role in many of the processes IGP is involved in. Our in-house development of camera tracking systems and the continuous improvements in the range of radars are just two examples.
IGP also applies this knowledge in areas such as border protection using existing (radar) sensors.
Long Range RF Geolocation
IGP integrates CRFS remote spectrum analysers to interface with PERIMASTER for geolocation of radio signals. With this integration the PERIMASTER software is also valuable for border and national protection of the radio spectrum.
Satellite-flown Drone Geolocation
Large drones are typically flown through satellite video connections, using high frequencies and very directional antennas towards the satellite. This makes it hard to impossible to trace RF signals from the ground. Fortunately, in many cases there is a way to geolocate these drones over hundreds of kilometres in flight.
At IGP, we can show you that way.
Sector Alpha
Using SECTOR ALPHA for an area of 120° or more will disrupt drone communications within that area. The efficient override waveform technology uses a fraction of the power of traditional systems and will not cause interference with other systems on the ground. When needed, all sectors may be switched on at the same time creating 360° coverage.
Perimaster
PERIMASTER C4I combines all sensors and effectors in a fully scalable network of devices through user and area adaptable GUI’s. PERIMASTER provides optimum situational awareness. It allows to take certain actions based on the information either automatically or through its informed users.
PERIMASTER will communicate with all common sensors and effectors available today.
Radar
IGP carries a range of radars that, for each purpose, best fulfil the need to detect pre-programmed, RF free drones, using the latest AI technologies to ensure safe classification.
HitchHiker
HitchHiker weighs less than 8 kg, has a length of 121 cm and a 70 cm wingspan. It can be launched automatically as soon as a threat is detected. With a top speed of over 300 kmh, it will intercept a target
at 5 km distance within 60 seconds. The HitchHiker will be guided by radar through IGP's Perimaster software to engage and follow the target and provide detailed video and AI target Identification. HitchHiker can follow the target or mitigate using a very low collateral damage technology.
