Quectel and Point One partnership creates highly affordable, small and easy to use high precision GNSS module integrating RTK for mass market applications

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 9, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Quectel Wireless Solutions (https://quectel.com/), a global supplier of IOT

modules and antennas, and Point One Navigation (https://pointonenav.com/), a

leader in precision location technology, today announced the LG69T-AM, the

latest addition to the LG69T GNSS Module Series. Point One's positioning engine

powers the LG69T-AM and enables centimeter-level global accuracy by integrating

augmented GNSS in an affordable yet easy to use module with open-source API.

The LG69T-AM (https://www.quectel.com/product/gnss-lg69t-am) GNSS module

features STMicroelectronics' TeseoV positioning receiver platform with 80

tracking and 4 fast acquisition channels compatible with GPS, GLONASS, Galileo,

BeiDou, QZSS and NAVIC. The LG69T-AM leverages Point One's RTK and SSR

technology for centimeter-level accuracy and ultra-fast convergence time. It is

designed for easy integration with minimal e-BOM modification and is

well-suited for mass market adoption without the need for an expensive external

co-processor. Due to its small package size, light weight, and excellent power

consumption, it is ideal for applications such as micro mobility and precision

agriculture.

Embedded in the LG69T-AM is Point One's FusionEngine and its Polaris correction

service client. Polaris is Point One's GNSS correction service that unlocks

better than 10cm absolute accuracy with a coast-to-coast footprint in the USA

and coverage across Europe. It offers a variety of connectivity options

including delivery over cellular and L-Band. The network is purpose-built for

precision agriculture customers and includes advanced anti-jam, interference

mitigation, end to end security and automatic integrity monitoring unmatched by

any other provider. The LG69T-AM is also compatible with standards-based

corrections services as well.

"Quectel is excited to be working with Point One Navigation to deliver a high

performance and easy-to-use precision GNSS solution," said Mark Murray, Vice

President of Sales for GNSS and Automotive at Quectel Wireless Solutions. "The

LG69T-AM, together with Point One's FusionEngine and Polaris, brings a truly

game-changing solution to the market."

"Point One's full suite of offerings enable precise location for anything in

the real world that moves. We're thrilled to be working with Quectel and

leveraging their deep experience in module design, support and integration.

This joint offering will enable safer and more effective robotic systems for

truly mass-market applications," said Aaron Nathan, CEO and Co-founder, Point

One Navigation.
