About PNI Sensor
PNI Sensor develops magnetic sensors, inertial modules and sensor-fusion systems for navigation in GPS-compromised environments. Its technology provides heading, motion and position inputs for defence, industrial and autonomous platforms.
The company supplies component and module-level products that integrators combine with other navigation sensors and application software. Accuracy, interfaces and environmental ratings vary by selected device and system configuration. PNI combines magnetic sensors, inertial processing and location algorithms for navigation without dependable GNSS.
