  • The navigation computer (sometimes called the navigational computer) was a computer system that was used on various starships. The system would assist with location and course information. In the year 2268, the Nausicaan bounty hunter Kajek used the navigation computer on his unnamed Andorian outrider to plot a course that would get him to Seudath before his targets on the Dulcinea arrived. (VAN - Declassified novella: The Stars Look Down)
  • A navigation computer, sometimes abbreviated NAV computer or NAVCOM, is a device used to coordinate slipstream space jumps and plot courses or steer ships at sublight speeds. While ships often have human crews, NAV computers or AIs are essential in making the complex calculations involved in astrogation, the process of coordinating a slipspace jump. They can also control unmanned vessels, such as freighters, entirely by themselves. As they possess only a fraction of the computational capability of an AI, NAV computers are generally inexpensive. To successfully perform jumps, NAV computers require the coordinates of the intended destination and other related data, which is often in the form of a navigation database.

abstract
  • A navigation computer, sometimes abbreviated NAV computer or NAVCOM, is a device used to coordinate slipstream space jumps and plot courses or steer ships at sublight speeds. While ships often have human crews, NAV computers or AIs are essential in making the complex calculations involved in astrogation, the process of coordinating a slipspace jump. They can also control unmanned vessels, such as freighters, entirely by themselves. As they possess only a fraction of the computational capability of an AI, NAV computers are generally inexpensive. To successfully perform jumps, NAV computers require the coordinates of the intended destination and other related data, which is often in the form of a navigation database. While the Covenant have a ban on more advanced AI systems, onboard computers are in common use. Sometimes referred to as the ships' "spirits," they generally operate the intricate systems required in glassing operations and presumably make the necessary calculations for Slipspace jumps.
