Multi-band receiver delivers centimetre-level accuracy
u-blox has announced the ZED-F9Pmulti-band GNSS module with integrated multi-band Real Time Kinematics (RTK) technology for machine control, ground robotic vehicles, and high precision unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) applications. The ZED‑F9P measures only 22x17x2.4mm and uses technology from the recently announced u‑blox F9 platform to deliver robust high precision positioning performance in seconds.
An alternative for centimetre level positioning accuracy
Within the past 15 years, standard precision GPS technology has found its way into countless devices you probably own. Your smartphone, your car navigation system, and your smart watch all use it to tell you where you are to within a few meters. Mostly, that’s been good enough, and for many use cases, higher accuracy would simply not have been affordable. The high cost of centimetre‑level positioning technology has limited its use to prof...
Mini INS module offers highly accurate orientation
A miniature Inertial Navigation System (INS) module which uses input from an external Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver has been introduced by Xsens, innovator of 3D motion tracking technology and products. The MTi-7 willprovide an accurate, real time position, velocity and orientation data stream.
