Septentrio, part of Hexagon, announces the launch of the mosaic-G5 P6 multi-frequency precise positioning module. This receiver, measuring only 23 by 16mm and weighing as little as 2.2 grams, enables reliable positioning without performance compromises for commercial UAVs, robots, and other size and power-constrained applications. AIM+ Premium technology protects the receiver from sophisticated intentional or unintentional GNSS jamming2 or malicious spoofing attacks.
“By extending the mosaic family with mosaic-G5 P6, we are bringing an all-in-one module offering accuracy, resilience, and flexibility for demanding industrial applications,” said Yasmine Hunter, Product Manager at Septentrio.
The newly released module offers one of the highest update rates on the market, combined with low latency, essential for efficient and accurate control systems and navigation. In addition to high-accuracy positioning, raw measurements are also available for high-performance sensor fusion. Mosaic-G5 P6 also offers users the flexibility to balance accuracy and availability and is compatible with Galileo High Accuracy Service (HAS) for decimetre-level positioning out of the box. Users can choose single or dual antenna configuration for accurate GNSS heading enabling robust orientation and motion control in industrial automation applications such as autonomous machinery, robotics, and precision guidance systems.
The mosaic-go G5 P6 evaluation kit enables easy testing and prototyping of the mosaic-G5 P6 GNSS module.
The new module is compatible with widely used, open-source autopilots like PX4 and ArduPilot as well as ROS, simplifying integration into robotic and drone systems. The mosaic-go G5 P6 evaluation kit simplifies testing with direct autopilot connections, while the free RxTools user interface assists with the setup and evaluation process.
Meet our GNSS experts and see mosaic-G5 P6 for yourself during Xponential in Detroit, USA, 11 – 14th May, at booth #37030. For more information about mosaic-G5 P6 or other Septentrio products, please contact the Septentrio team.
Global Navigation Satellite System including the American GPS, European Galileo, Russian GLONASS, Chinese BeiDou, Japan’s QZSS and India’s NavIC. These satellite constellations broadcast positioning information to receivers which use it to calculate their absolute position.
Jamming is a form of radio interference which occurs when GPS frequency is overpowered by other radio waves, resulting in accuracy degradation or event total loss of position. Spoofing is a malicious form of radio interference, where misleading signals are sent into the receiver, resulting in faulty coordinates, which lead the target away from its predefined track.
