About VNS01 Visual Navigation System
VNS01 is UAV Navigation's compact visual navigation system for GNSS-denied UAS operations. Its onboard camera builds internal maps and combines visual odometry with pattern recognition to correct dead-reckoning drift when paired with the VECTOR flight-control family.
