u-blox explorer kit for rapid development of high precision GNSS applications
Mouser is now offering the XPLR-HPG-2 Explorer kit from u-blox. The XPLR-HPG-2 Explorer kit provides a compact development and prototyping platform for cm-level accuracy positioning applications, such as autonomous robotics, asset tracking and connected health.
The u-blox XPLR-HPG-2 Explorer kit is populated with four modules:
The ZED-F9R is a high-precision sensor fusion module with 3D sensors and a multi-band GNSS receiver. It provides a reliable multi-band RTK turnkey solution with up to 30 Hz real-time position update rate and complete GNSS carrier raw data.
The NEO-D9S module is a satellite data receiver for the L-band correction broadcast, enabling global access to centimetre-level GNSS corrections. The module implements u-blox security principles and advanced security features, including signature, anti-jamming, and anti-spoofing mechanisms, thus allowing reliable GNSS positioning in end-user products.
The LARA-R6001D is a compact LTE Cat 1 multi-mode module offering global coverage. The module is also secure by design with secure boot and secure updates and is certified according to RED cybersecurity requirements.
The NINA-W106 is a small industrial module that integrates a powerful dual-core 32-bit microcontroller with 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and dual-mode Bluetooth v4.2.
Equipped with its GNSS and communication modules, the XPLR-HPG-2 Explorer kit can access correction data from a satellite broadcast via L-band satellite GNSS receiver or IP connectivity using LTE or Wi-Fi. The NINA-W10 wireless MCU module with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity runs the HPG software and controls the communications between the u-blox wireless modules. PointPerfect, the u-blox GNSS augmentation service, provides correction data delivered via the Thingstream IoT service delivery platform. The XPLR-HPG-2 also supports the Networked Transport of RTCM via Internet Protocol (NTRIP), so it can also be used with other error correction services.
