GNSS and dead reckoning module for ADAS and automated driving
u-blox announced the u‑blox ZED-F9K high precision multi-band GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) module with built-in inertial sensors. The module combines the latest generation of GNSS receiver technology, signal processing algorithms, and correction services to deliver down to decimeter-level accuracy within seconds, addressing the evolving needs of ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems) and automated driving markets. […]
Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity software expanded to enable interactive development of embedded applications
u-blox announced that it is expanding its connectivity software offering. In addition to the established u‑connectXpress, previously known as u-blox connectivity software, the offering now also includes u-connectScript. The extended software series differentiates the company’s offering by further simplifying wireless Bluetooth and Wi‑Fi device development, enabling embedded script applications in the module while reducing complexity and cutting […]
BLE modules now integrate PCB antenna
u-blox announced that its popular NINA-B3 series of stand-alone Bluetooth 5 low energy modules now includes the NINA-B306/316 modules with integrated PCB antenna. The trapezoidal printed antenna, technology licensed from Proant AB, enable superior performance transmission and reception of data in a small form factor. Bluetooth low energy is rapidly becoming the short-range wireless technology […]
Globally-configurable NB-IoT module enables development of one device across regions
u-blox has announced the SARA-N3, a multi-band NB-IoT module that supports a preliminary set of 3GPP Release 14 features (LTE Cat NB2). The SARA-N3 is available in two variants: one dedicated to China and another that can operate across multiple bands on any NB-IoT network globally. The u-blox firmware-over-the-air (uFOTA) client/server solution with Lightweight M2M […]
Vehicle tracking device with a built-in Wi‑Fi hotspot
u-blox announced the StarLink TrackerWi‑Fi, an advanced vehicle tracking device produced by ERM Advanced Telematics, a provider of device-based telematics solutions. The device combines u-blox GNSS, 4G and Wi-Fi technology eliminating the need to equip vehicles with a separate mobile Wi‑Fi hotspot. The StartLink TrackerWi‑Fi has wide-ranging solutions for applications in connected cars, telematics and vehicle […]
Multi-band GNSS timing receiver meets 5G’s accuracy requirements
u-blox has announced the ZED-F9T high accuracy timing module. This module meets even the most stringent timing synchronization requirements in 5G mobile networks on a global scale. Although previous generation of cellular networks have already been using GNSS time as primary source of synchronization, better synchronization throughout the network will be a key enabler for […]
Radio and gateway modules help IoT device developers to secure their designs
u-blox has announced the NINA-W15 multiradio and gateway module series, which can simultaneously support both Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n connections and dual-mode Bluetooth connectivity. This includes support for both Bluetooth low energy and Bluetooth BR/EDR. Concurrent support for these radio interfaces delivers much design versatility. The modules will be particularly useful in products such as gateways and […]
