Inertial Sensing product offering
Product offeringCore offering
Inertial Sensing One AB designs, develops, manufactures, and supplies gyroscopic and magnetic borehole surveying systems used to determine the spatial position and orientation of drill holes. The company also offers related software, cloud-based survey management platforms, and survey accessories to support mining, tunneling, civil engineering, and energy development operations worldwide.
Product overview
Inertial Sensing One AB (IS1) is a true Nordic manufacturer of advanced borehole survey instruments and software, founded in Stockholm in 2010. The product portfolio centers on gyro survey tools (BlastGyro™, TwinGyro™, TwinXS™, SlimTwin™, GoGyro™, NorthFinder™) and magnetic survey instruments (Compass25™, Compass35™), all designed and manufactured in-house in Stockholm. These hardware products are complemented by a software ecosystem including SurveySafe™ cloud data management platform, Surveyor™ for remote survey operations, and Analysis™ for data review. The TrueDepth™ technology embedded in BlastGyro™ eliminates depth encoders. All instruments share common SurveySafe™ cloud integration for data management, with options ranging from slim 25mm workhorses for blasthole applications to dual-gyro systems for maximum redundancy, serving mining, civil engineering, tunneling, and energy development sectors across 40+ countries through 15+ global distributors.

Inertial Sensing competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Renishaw: A UK-headquartered precision measurement and sensor company with encoder and position-feedback products used in industrial and mining measurement contexts. A broad incumbent whose precision-sensing technology overlaps Inertial Sensing's MEMS/FOG gyroscope category.
- Leica Geosystems (Hexagon): Hexagon's Leica Geosystems division supplies industrial and geospatial measurement instruments including high-precision positioning sensors. A broad incumbent whose inertial/positioning technologies and surveying-software ecosystem partially overlap Inertial Sensing's offering, especially on the measurement side.
- Boart Longyear: A global drilling services and equipment provider with its own borehole surveying instrumentation and surveying services. A broad incumbent that bundles survey tools inside a much larger drilling-services offering overlapping Inertial Sensing's mining and geotechnical customers.
- Halliburton / Sperry Drilling: Halliburton's Sperry Drilling unit is one of the largest directional-drilling and MWD/LWD service providers globally. Competes indirectly through drilling-service bundles that include gyro surveying, overlapping Inertial Sensing's energy-development segment.
Direct peers
- Brownline Instruments: A Netherlands-based specialist in borehole surveying instrumentation and directional guidance tools for geothermal, oil & gas, and HDD (horizontal directional drilling) applications. A smaller direct peer whose surveyor/instrument product line overlaps Inertial Sensing's NorthFinder and Compass family.
- Reflex (Imdex): Imdex's Reflex business is the leading manufacturer of magnetic and gyroscopic borehole survey instruments for the global mining industry. Directly competes with Inertial Sensing's BlastGyro, TwinGyro, and Compass product families across the same mining and drilling customers.
- Stockholm Precision Tools: A Sweden-based manufacturer of gyro and magnetic borehole survey instruments serving mining, exploration, and geotechnical markets worldwide. The closest head-to-head competitor to Inertial Sensing across both product category and Nordic origin.
- Scientific Drilling International: A directional-drilling services and downhole-tool provider in the oil & gas sector with adjacent presence in mining and geotechnical surveying. Closely comparable in downhole-survey instrumentation and the use of gyroscopic/MWD tools in directional drilling campaigns.
