In 1998, two Oxford university graduates with a passion for technology saw a gap in the market for a land-based inertial navigation system and decided to act on this. Two years later, the same two graduates created the CPS 2000 which was a GPS/INS navigation system and brought this to the market. The feedback from the market made it clear there was a need for a quality product that could provide real time measurements.
