Laser Velocity Sensor

Hybrid Navigation System achieves position accuracy better than 0.1% of distance traveled within the mine’s 1.4km deep underground labyrinth.

Hybrid Navigation System: Academic article examining high-precision positioning without reliance on fixed infrastructure or GNSS, in Europe’s deepest underground mine.

The Laser Velocity Sensor (LVS) is a new class of navigation technology developed by Advanced Navigation that uses infrared (IR) lasers to measure a vehicle’s ground-relative 3D velocity with extraordinary accuracy and precision.
