ENSCO provides custom pedestrian navigation solutions that feature robust, real-time positioning, tracking and locating where GPS service is degraded or unavailable. This capability is useful to dismounted warfighters, firefighters, other first responders, and critical personnel who are indoors, in dense foliage areas, urban canyons, open pit mines, or underground.
ENSCO scientists and engineers provide software defined radio solutions that leverage various sensors, including:
- Foot-worn micro-electromechanical systems or MEMS-based inertial measurement units
- Tightly-coupled GPS receivers
- Digital magnetic compasses
- Foot-to-foot RF ranging
- Vision-based navigation sensors
ENSCO’s self-contained locating and tracking solution can be tailored to individual customer needs and applications. It can be integrated with other navigation or positioning systems, vision-based sensors, foot-to-foot radio frequency ranging, and other orthogonal technologies designed to increase positional accuracy over longer periods without GPS.
