Pocket Locator: Objectives The customer’ project aims to create a small, lightweight, and affordable GNSS receiver that provides centimeter-level positioning using RTK. It targets mobile field users who need higher accuracy than standard GPS without using bulky surveying equipment and make compatible with both Android and iOS devices. Specifications and Performance This customer’s ultracompact RTK

Today we are happy to share this customer project that makes use of u-blox ZED-F9R: GNSS RTK and 6-axis IMU fused together to achieve centimeter-level accuracy outdoors, while keeping decimeter-level accuracy inside short tunnels and meter-level accuracy in longer tunnels. Jim Gayes has been a Google Trusted Partner, capturing Google Street View imagery of outside

Dear followers, Today we want to share this cool project from Pasi Nuutinmäki where you can see one of the use cases of 3xZED-F9P version of simpleRTK2B-SBC. The setup consists of 2 “rigs” with 3 GNSS-antennas/receivers (u-blox ZED-F9P) attached to both. Using the coordinates of the antennas, the location and orientation of an object can

For the fans and professionals of alpine ski today we want to share the project developed by K.Matsuhashi from Japan. Mr. Matsuhashi had problems to objectively measure the quality of his skiing turns and quantify its skidding. To resolve this challenge he had the great idea of giving a try to RTK technology. And it
