Navitrol™
Navigation software by Navitec
Anywhere, in any weather
Highly accurate localization and navigation even in dynamic environment
Any vehicle type
Using natural feature navigation
Navitrol is based on natural feature navigation to provide highly accurate and robust navigation for any AGV & AMR type, indoor and outdoor.
Additionally, Navithor – Universal Fleet Control by Navitec allows managing very large systems with various vehicle types in one fleet. Simulation ensures optimal system performance and drastically reduces installation time.

Precise localization and navigation
By using natural feature navigation, Navitrol can provide extremely accurate results in navigation and localization, even in dynamic and rapidly changing environment. Positioning accuracy and stability are far superior to any ROS-based systems.
Natural feature navigation, also called SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping) navigation, uses laser scanners that identify objects in the environment. The system compares these measurements with previously created map points to position and navigate AGVs.
Navitec uses its own proprietary algorithm that ensures the highest positioning and navigation accuracy in the market.
