Passive GPS-denied navigation payload.
Zero RF emissions. Day and night.
UAV, USV, and UGV platforms.
Camera points at zenith. Proprietary star-matching algorithm computes absolute yaw and corrects IMU drift periodically.
UV sensor array measures sky polarization pattern. Finds heading that best explains all sensor readings. Continuous heading correction throughout daylight hours.
Native MAVLink output. Drop-in replacement for GPS input on any compatible flight controller.
Tested with ArduPilot firmware. Works with Cube Orange, Pixhawk and compatible autopilots.
Compatible with PX4 flight stack via MAVLink GPS injection interface.
Fixed-wing, multi-rotor, loitering munitions. StarNav works best in stable loiter or cruise flight.
Ideal for unmanned surface vehicles over open ocean where map matching fails entirely.
Ground vehicles and autonomous rovers in GPS-jammed environments via UART / I2C.
Sensor fusion of IMU, sky polarization and star tracker.
Passive. No RF. No GPS dependency.
