Septentrio's mosaic-H Delivers Accurate GNSS Positioning and Heading in a Single Compact Module

Nov. 2, 2020
The mosaic-HTM dual-antenna GPS/GNSS module opens the door to smaller navigation and control solutions for automated machines and robots.

Septentrio, a provider of high-precision GNSS positioning solutions, expands its GNSS module portfolio with the mosaic-H heading receiver. With dual antenna capabilities, this SMT module delivers reliable heading & pitch or heading & roll information on top of centimeter-level positioning. mosaic-H is the latest addition to Septentrio’s existing mosaic module family, which already includes high-performance RTK and timing modules as well as modules with integrated GNSS corrections.

Providing a single standard footprint across multiple specialized receiver modules enables integrators to create multiple application-specific products based on a single design. Its very small dimensions and low power consumption make it ideal as a navigation and control solution for robotics, UAVs, and autonomous applications which require robust and secure positioning and heading. 

mosaic-HTM delivers orientation angles immediately from the start, helping initialize inertial systems which otherwise would require movement before they can measure 3D orientation. INS initialization with GNSS attitude from power-up allows machine trajectory path optimization and fully informed navigation of robotic systems immediately from mission start. The mosaic-H receiver will be available for integrator testing and customer evaluation by end of December 2020. The full product production is expected by spring 2021.
