u-blox high-precision positioning solutions now available on NVIDIA Jetson Edge AI and NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion platforms
u-blox has strengthened its contribution to the NVIDIA Jetson and NVIDIA DRIVE Hyperion platforms as part of its strategic growth initiative around high-precision positioning within the industrial and automotive markets.
u-blox has joined the NVIDIA Jetson Partner Ecosystem, which delivers the power of modern AI for autonomous machines and other edge AI applications across all industrial markets. u-blox’s high-precision positioning solutions combine multi-constellation, multi-band GNSS RTK receivers with reliable GNSS corrections to deliver centimetre-level accuracy localisations in real time for the end device. Designed to be accessible and effortless to use, engineers in the ecosystem can quickly develop and deploy AI-powered autonomous mobile robots, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), precision agriculture equipment, and other autonomous machines that can perceive the world.
For autonomous driving, u-blox is listed as a reference device for IMU/GNSS sensors and accessories ecosystem of the NVIDIA DRIVE AGX Orin Developer Kit. The reference accessory board includes the u-blox ZED-F9K high-precision dead reckoning GNSS module with integrated IMU sensors and native support of u-blox PointPerfect GNSS correction service. The listing connects u-blox to the development community of autonomous driving applications.
“Our work with NVIDIA will help make it simpler for engineers to develop autonomous vehicles and mobile robots based on u-blox high-precision positioning solutions,” says u-blox CEO Stephan Zizala. “We will continue to drive innovation to deliver advanced navigation solutions that are precise, reliable, easy to use, and highly valued by our customers.”
