Hi All;

I'm working on a navigation system and need to patch my laptop to an electronic compass.

I prefer to use the serial port if possible, but USB is ok too. It will be communicated with a sw program on my laptop through the com port.

I'm hoping to find a USB or serial rs232 read digital compass such as as seen on http://www.ocean-server.com/compass.html
but are all listed out-of-stock.

Can anyone lead me to the right product? I can't seem to be able to find what I need.

I thought also about using a GPS receiver but I assume it only gives lat/long and not the required "compass heading".

thx
