A navigational computer, sometimes referred to as a navicomputer or nav computer, represented a specialized computer designed to execute the complex mathematical operations required for faster-than-light navigation in hyperspace.
While these navicomputers saw widespread use across much of the explored galaxy, their performance notably degraded within the Unknown Regions. Consequently, inhabitants of the Unknown Regions opted for alternative navigation methods, relying on Force-sensitive navigators who possessed the ability of precognition, rather than employing navicomputers. A prime example is the Chiss Ascendancy, which utilized Force-sensitive children, known as ozyly-esehembo, for navigational purposes.
To obscure his trail and safeguard the secrecy of his mission, the assassin Ochi from Bestoon intentionally erased the data from his navicomputer.
