Movella Xsens Vision Navigator – Precise positioning, even without GNSS

Accurate location solutions – Reliable localisation everywhere

For autonomous vehicles indoors or outdoors, knowing the exact position at all times is critical, even without GNSS signals. The Xsens Vision Navigator ensures precise navigation in forests, cities, warehouses, tunnels, and underground using visual-inertial odometry technology.

Visual-inertial odometry

By combining dual RTK GNSS, an internal IMU, and a camera, the Vision Navigator delivers accurate real-time navigation data.

Distance-based position drift

Unlike traditional GNSS/INS devices, the Vision Navigator’s position drift depends on distance, not time, allowing resilience against GNSS disturbances or outages.

System options – Development kits – the best way to learn by doing

• Starter and Development Kits give first-hand experience with 3D motion tracking while helping tailor solutions to specific application needs.
• Starter Kits (SKs) and Development Kits (DKs) simplify 3D motion tracking, offering easy setup and direct plug-and-play integration.

Starter Kits – ready in minutes

SKs are available for rugged MTi-630R, MTi-670G, and MTi-680G, enabling quick setup and motion data recording within five minutes.

Development Kits – complete and versatile

• DKs include a development board for multiple cable types and pin access, supporting MTi 1-series and MTi 600-series modules.
• Both kits provide everything needed to start immediately, including supporting software, cables, antennas, and detailed manuals.

Extensive software suite

• Each SK or DK comes with the MT Software Suite, offering free tools for seamless integration into your application.
• MT Manager provides a user-friendly interface for data recording, playback, real-time viewing, graphing, and straightforward configuration of sensor settings.

Customisation and development

• The MT SDK includes example code, APIs, and drivers for C, C++, C#, Python, MATLAB, ROS, and STM32.
• It also offers a Magnetic Field Mapper for calibration, along with comprehensive documentation and third-party hardware/software compatibility.

Broad compatibility

Our solutions support NVIDIA Jetson, Arduino, Raspberry Pi, lidar sensors, LabVIEW, ROS2, and Golang, ensuring flexibility across industries and applications.
