Dual-antenna GNSS receiver system boasts sub-decimeter corrections
Septentrio announces the launch of the AsteRx-m3 Sx OEM board. This new dual-antenna receiver combines Septentrio’s latest core GNSS technology with the SECORX-S sub-decimeter correction service, enabling convenient plug-and-play positioning. High-accuracy positioning is available directly out of the box as GNSS corrections are automatically streamed to the receiver. This significantly simplifies the user’s GNSS receiver […]
Laser modules boost spatial recognition, ranging system output by 30%
ROHM’s newly developed VCSEL technology achieves greater accuracy in spatial recognition and distance measuring systems by using Time Of Flight (TOF) systems. VCSEL has become popular in recent years with the adoption of laser light sources for spatial recognition in tablets and facial recognition in smartphones. With the emergence of Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) and industrial […]
Chip-scale atomic clock produces super-stable frequencies
IQD is pleased to present its new chip-scale atomic clock (CSAC), ICPT-1. The ICPT-1 uses the Coherent Population Trap (CPT) method to obtain a very stable frequency. While common rubidium oscillators detect the atomic transition with the help of a rubidium discharge lamp (Rb lamp), the ICPT-1 uses a laser to induce quantum transitions. A […]
