Trimble introduces BD935-INS module with precision GNSS
Trimble has introduced its BD935-INS module featuring precision GNSS with an integrated 3-D Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) inertial sensor package, as announced on 6 May.
The Trimble BD935-INS is part of the company's GNSS OEM portfolio and augments real-time positioning with 3-D orientation. It is designed for applications that require orientation as well as RTK in a single package.
The module features triple frequency for both GPS and GLONASS constellations, as well as dual frequency for BeiDou and Galileo. It delivers RTK initialisation for 1–2cm positioning. For applications that do not require centimetre accuracy, the BD935-INS integrated GNSS-Inertial engine delivers GNSS and DGNSS positions in GNSS-denied environments such as urban canyons, tunnels, heavy canopy and more.
Trimble also announced the new BX935-INS, which houses the Trimble BD935-INS module for immediate access to position and attitude data for a variety of applications. The Trimble BD935-INS and BX935-INS is expected to be available in the third quarter of 2015.
Dale Hermann, general manager of integrated technologies division, Trimble, said: 'The OEM and system integrator communities demand high performance, reliability and support for their positioning solutions.
'The Trimble BD935-INS delivers the latest GNSS and inertial technology in an easy-to-integrate form factor for demanding conditions and applications such as lightweight robotic or unmanned vehicles. With the BD935-INS module, customers are purchasing a robust navigation solution, extending performance beyond that of a GNSS receiver only.'
