Visual learning

Preparing your future? Start early! If you are a student, use I-Navigation for preparing your exams. It will enable you to structure the vast amount of information you have to memorize. In addition it will help you to focus clearly and precisely on priorities. So you will be able to create the outlines of your specific materials just in minutes. And when it comes to examinations, here is an ultimate benefit: with its unique intuitive structure, it will help you to memorize (visually) easier then ever.

Organizing projects

What makes I-Navigation so unique and different from other visual mapping tools is its ability to focus without losing the context. Using I-Navigation means: you will have a tool that offers a clear and concise view on any project element given. All further project related elements can be logically combined - to give one single and clear overview. That goes for any kind of information: documents, web links, tasks or a mixture of all - can be viewed and monitored in one single place.

Decision making

The system of I-Navigation is as easy as can be. The central user interface is a graphical tree. But not any tree - it is a tree in the hyperbolic infinte space - so that you can spread out the tree in any possible direction without ever loosing it from your focus. This surface combined with the corresponding functions makes the tool ideal for creating and visualizing decision trees. Decision trees are excellent tools for helping you to choose between several courses of action. They provide a highly effective structure within which you can lay out options and investigate the possible outcomes of choosing those options.

Creating summaries

You probably know that: you want to solve a problem, you start making lists, but after a while you are not able to put the pieces properly together anymore. You have lost track of the system you have created

This is ‘water under the bridge’ by applying I-Navigation.

Whether you are a teacher, a student, a company manager or a researcher you can use I-Navigation to collect all the information you find on a given topic. Designed to ease collecting information I-Navigation will save your time.
