MAGNETO-INERTIAL TECHNOLOGY REDEFINES ACCURATE 3D GEOLOCATION
SYSNAV has developed a new generation of positioning and geolocation technology with no need for GPS or RF infrastructure, which works anytime and anywhere, including indoor environments.
Magneto-Inertial Technology: Based on a unique approach which merges inertial data and terrestrial magnetic data, SYSNAV’s innovation, backed with 20 patents, has materialized into “magneto-inertial” trackers which enable precise positioning, orientation, navigation, or motion measurement.
The excellence of SYSNAV’s technology was recognized through the prestigious 2014 Innovation Award from the MIT Technology Review. It had previously received numerous awards, including the Innovation Award from the French DOD (DGA).
SYSNAV’s approach combines inertial sensor calibration and trajectory calculation algorithms from the military world and the integration of geomagnetic field variations to determine speed and deviation with greater accuracy. It employs sensors with great precision and low cost as a source of inertial positioning.
This method allows geolocation with various levels of accuracy depending on the needs:
- with GPS-RTK: centimeter accuracy
- without GPS: ~ 0.5% of distance traveled
- without GPS, with Map Matching: ~ 30 cm accuracy
Operating anywhere, even without GPS and without infrastructure, SYSNAV’s technology is highly available and reliable.
In many sectors, SYSNAV’s technology is already an essential complement to GPS solutions.
