Final Presentation NAVISP EL1-069 "LUPIN: Enabling High Performance PNT in the Lunar Environment"

Start date: 12/05/2026 10:00

End date: 12/05/2026 11:30

How well can Moonlight support precise lunar surface navigation? The final presentation of the LUPIN activity (NAVISP‑EL1‑069) will reveal the answer, drawing on real‑world field trials and an end‑to‑end navigation demonstrator. By integrating a Moonlight‑like GNSS receiver, vision‑based sensors, and inertial systems into GMV’s FASTNAV planetary rover, LUPIN emulated lunar navigation conditions on Earth. Results from the Fuerteventura campaigns provide concrete insights into achievable performance, system architecture trade‑offs, and the implications for reliable, high‑precision navigation of future lunar rovers.

 

This activity was fully funded under NAVISP Element 1, which aims to increase European innovation in Positioning, Navigation and Timing. Please check the agenda and register for the event to learn more about this project.
