KVH Industries has announced that it has received a total of $3.8 million in new orders for its precision fiber optic gyro (FOG) systems.

A total of $2.9 million in new orders was received for KVH's DSP-3100 FOGs from a major remote weapons station manufacturer.

In addition, a $0.9 million order was placed for KVH's CNS-5000 continuous navigation system for use in commercial applications.

"These new orders emphasize the growing strategic value of our fiber optic gyro technology to KVH's long-term growth," said Jay Napoli, KVH's vice president of sales for FOG and OEM products.

KVH's fiber optic guidance and sensor systems are used in an array of commercial and defense-related stabilization, navigation, autonomous vehicle, and precision guidance applications.
