GNSS receiver manufacturer Septentrio announced the addition of the AsteRx-i S to its GNSS/INS product portfolio. It combines the company’s compact, multi-frequency multi-constellation GNSS engine with an ultralight external industrial-grade MEMS-based IMU. Calibrated for wide temperature ranges, the GNSS delivers accurate and reliable GNSS/IMU integrated positioning to cm-level as well as full attitude at high update rates and low latency. Key benefits for users include GNSS/INS positioning with 3D attitude (heading pitch and roll); AIM+ interference monitoring and mitigation system; and high-update rate, low-latency positioning and attitude. The solution is a multi-constellation, multifrequency, all-in-view RTK receiver with a small and ultralight IMU (10 g), with robust calibration for wide temperature ranges. Designed around demanding requirements for size, weight, power consumption and temperature variation, the AsteRx-i S can be used for various applications such as inspection with UAVs, UAS photogrammetry, automation, robotics and logistics. It can be used for direct georeferencing in mapping applications with UAVs, for managing containers in a port or for small robots in agriculture.
