MN 362. Advanced Navigation Part 2: Unlocking Unprecedented Navigation in Extreme Environments

Advanced Navigation is redefining underground positioning with a breakthrough solution that combines a high-performance Inertial Navigation System (INS) with a Laser Velocity Sensor (LVS), delivering precise localization without relying on GPS, fixed infrastructure, pre-existing maps, or external aids. Tim and Ted discuss how the technology was successfully tested in Europe's deepest mine through the BHP Deep Mine Challenge, how it addresses historical INS drift limitations, and why mining companies across Australia, North America, and Latin America are increasingly demanding infrastructure-independent navigation solutions.🔸 Learn More about Advanced Navigation: https://www.advancednavigation.com/mining/chimera-land/?utm_source=miningnow&utm_medium=crownsmenMedia Partner🔹 SME (Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration): https://www.smenet.org/?utm_source=Mining_NOW&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_campaign=brand&utm_content=joinStudio Partner🔹 Black & Veatch: https://www.bv.com/who-we-serve/fuels-and-natural-resources/mining-and-metals?utm_campaign=mining_metals_and_fertilizers-fnr-mining-noia-26-100322&utm_id=26-100322&utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=podcast&utm_content=mining&utm_tactic=na&utm_term=brand-awareness_26-mining-now-podcast-qr-2Voice of Industry Tour Partner🔹 Savona Equipment: https://www.savonaequipment.com/?utm_source=Email+&utm_medium=Email+&utm_campaign=Email+&utm_id=Savona+EquipmentEpisode Sponsors🔹 Glencore Technology: https://www.glencoretechnology.com/en/technologies?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=interview&utm_campaign=crownsmen🔹 Eriez: https://www.eriez.com/mining?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=crownsmen&utm_id=111&utm_term=eriez+mining+minerals+processing&utm_content=eriez+crownsmen🔹 SME (Society for Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration): https://www.smenet.org/?utm_source=Mining_NOW&utm_medium=Podcast&utm_campaign=brand&utm_content=join🔹 Orica Digital Solutions – Axis Mining Technology: https://axisminetech.com/🔹 Metso: https://www.metso.com/?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=paid-social&utm_campaign=2026_NCA_Podcasts&utm_content=crownsmen-ad1🔹 Australian Diversified Engineering (ADE): https://www.ade.net.au/
