Sarantel receives volume orders for antenna used in AutoSeis Inc. HDR 1C innovative autonomous seismic node

The HDR 1C node uses Sarantel's GeoHelix GPS antenna as part of a precision timing and location system which enables the probe to gather highly accurate geological survey data. These autonomous nodes can be deployed in large numbers, over a large geographic area and replace expensive and time-consuming wired survey systems.Sarantel's GeoHelix GPS filtering antenna was selected for this application because it offers an omni-directional gain pattern which provides the customer stable and reliable GPS performance across a wide range of installation environments.

David Wither, CEO of Sarantel, said:

We are very excited by this new and innovative application for Sarantel's technology. GPS is used as a precision timing source for a broad range of applications and the HDR1C autonomous seismic node is a great example of how Sarantel’s technology is enabling the development of a wide range of game changing devicesRalph Muse, CEO of AutoSeis inc. a Global Geophysical Services Company, said“The Sarantel GeoHelix GPS antenna has helped us to develop our unique product with advanced continuous recording through the use of the highly accurate state of the art GPS solution. The support provided by Sarantel to ensure the best design available was invaluable in ensuring the HDR1C is the smallest,
