RSSAs part of the New Hungary Development Plan, NNG has developed a new, automotive line-fit navigation solution based on the iGO My way engine. The company, which was awarded an EU subsidy for the 18-month development project, has now delivered its first line-fit navigation product to a market-leading global motor-vehicle Tier 1 supplier.

Development areas of this tender-supported project include the use of road information (such as wheel turning and gyroscope) in addition to GPS for multi-sensor navigation. It is claimed that the new product further meets the requirements of automotive start-up and route-planning time which is significantly shorter than the average 10-15 seconds for personal navigation devices. The software works on the most widespread automotive operating system, acts on standards of sensor transmission signals and is ready to be integrated with the multimedia devices of a wide range of vehicles.

"The iGO My way software engine has proven stable and solid, but at the same time provides a flexible framework for developing navigation solutions that meet the demands of each industry,” said Péter Balogh, interim CEO of NNG. “Our automotive products have gained acknowledgement by global OEM partners; and while several other projects are already in progress, the completed developments contribute to the consolidation of our reputation as a renowned navigation supplier to the automotive industry."
