Introducing Navion® i2: The High-Performance Inertial Measurement Unit

Matjaž Strniša
June 20, 2023

NAVION i2 is a Dewesoft inertial navigation system (INS) platform that provides accurate position, orientation, velocity, and acceleration measurements. Measurements are estimated by a Kalman-based algorithm that combines GNSS positioning with the measurements provided by the internal MEMS-based inertial measurement unit (IMU). NAVION i2 is connectected to a PC via a connection box or Y-cable, both provided in the package.
In its size and weight class, NAVION i2 is the world's highest-performance inertial navigation system. The package includes a dual antenna for heading and RTK correction, which improves positioning accuracy down to 1 cm.
DewesoftX software makes it easy to configure NAVION i2 and to view and record its data. This award-winning software package is included, and can also record data from analog and digital sources and bus data like CAN and CAN FD, completely synchronized with the inertial data.
NAVION i2 can be affixed using either a magnetic mount or powerful suction cups, depending on the application. It supports all major constellations, including GPS L1, L2, L5; GLONASS L1, L2, L3; BeiDou B1, B2; Galileo E1, AltBOC, E5a, E5b; and NavlC (IRNSS) L5. It also supports several SBAS systems for enhanced accuracy.
Navion i2 provides accurate position, velocity, acceleration, and orientation even under the most demanding operating and environmental conditions. It is designed to operate across a wide variety of applications and industries, including automotive, aerospace, railway, and marine, as well as agriculture, transportation, industrial equipment, and robotics.
Designed for real-world outdoor applications, NAVION i2 is rated to IP68 water-proof and dust-proof specifications under the IEC 60529 standard. The small chassis weighs only 310 g (0.68 lbs).
