Stay Oriented. Stay Autonomous.​

Mobile system —whether unmanned land, sea and air vehicles—face complex, dynamic environments where GPS signals fail.​

Precise orientation and position tracking via inertial sensing and GNSS fusion ensures reliable navigation, safety, and mission success. 

Learn why inertial-based navigation is the backbone of tomorrow’s autonomous platforms​

Enhancing Inertial Navigation Performance with Rada

Autonomous robots can’t rely on GPS alone. ​

Discover how combining radar and inertial data dramatically boosts navigation accuracy, reliability, and obstacle awareness—even in the harshest conditions.

Autonomous Navigation. Anywhere.​

Whether underground, on ground, or in the air, autonomous systems need more than GPS. HBK enables reliable, high-frequency localization using advanced inertial technologies—keeping platforms on track when vision or GNSS fall short.​

Autonomous Navigation & Control

Operate safely—even when GPS fails.​

When robots enter tunnels, dense cities, or remote areas, they lose GNSS signal integrity. HBK fuses data from IMUs, GNSS, odometry, and LiDAR to maintain accurate positioning via Kalman filtering. The result: continuous, reliable navigation and control, even in complex, signal-challenged spaces.​

Key Benefits:​

  • High-frequency updates (up to 1 kHz)​
  • Reliable performance across terrain types​
  • ROS and PX4 compatible​
  • Compact form factor for space-constrained designs​

Localisation & Mapping

Map precisely. Navigate with confidence.​

In fast-changing or unknown environments, robots need reliable localization to support SLAM and path planning. HBK inertial sensors stabilize mapping algorithms, reduce drift, and deliver accurate pose data—even under vibration, rotation, or occlusion.​

Key Benefits:​

  • Stable tracking for mapping and SLAM​
  • Inertial data fused with LiDAR/camera systems​
  • Precise time-synchronization​
  • Enhanced safety and obstacle avoidance​
