AeroNav-Mini
AeroNAV-Mini is an ultra-compact and lightweight Navic/IRNSS, GNSS module designed for high-performance UAVs, autonomous vehicles, and robotics applications. Built around the Dual Band GNSS chipset and integrated with a Bosch BMM350 3-axis digital compass, this module delivers exceptional positioning accuracy, fast convergence, and precise attitude reference in a 26 × 26 mm footprint.

The Module chipset supports NavIC (India’s regional satellite navigation system) on the L5 band, along with GPS, Galileo, BeiDou, and QZSS. Its dual-band (L1 + L5) architecture significantly improves resistance to multipath errors and interference, making it ideal for challenging environments such as urban canyons and dense forests.
