ACEINNA and Point One are delivering a reliable, turn-key, and affordable GNSS correction solution.

ACEINNA announced a partnership with Point One Navigation, a leader delivering precise positioning for the next generation of transportation. The strategic partnership enables a streamlined positioning platform which combines Point One's Polaris GNSS cloud correction service with ACEINNA's OpenRTK330 hardware and software solution for developers in agriculture, construction, mapping, surveying, robotics, and trucking.

ACEINNA and Point One are delivering a reliable, turn-key, and affordable GNSS correction solution.  Customers will be able to purchase the fully integrated hardware and streaming service from ACEINNA and its distribution partners. Activation and authentication will be streamlined thanks to extensive backend server synchronization between ACEINNA and Point One. True centimeter-level accuracy will be attainable and powered by the integration of Point One's coast-to-coast Polaris network and ACEINNA's OpenRTK platform. Finally, aggressive pricing will be offered to support all deployment levels, from single unit and up through large scale. The combined offering will be available for purchase beginning in December 2020.

OpenRTK330 is a high performance GNSS receiver with a built-in RTK engine and triple redundant inertial sensors. It is designed for use in Level 3 ADAS and other high-volume applications requiring precise position information. It includes a multi-band RTK/GNSS receiver coupled with redundant inertial sensor arrays to provide cm-level accuracy, reliability, and ideal performance during GNSS outages. The dead reckoning solution delivers strong performance in GNSS challenged urban environments.  OpenRTK300 is supported by ACEINNA's open-source tool chain which enables direct customization of the on-board algorithms, I/O, and communication stack on the device

Point One's Polaris network is a proprietary GNSS correction network built from the ground up for the needs of modern automotive and robotics customers. Polaris uses the latest in base station technology including advanced anti-jam, interference mitigation, security, and integrity monitoring. Its cloud-based correction architecture allows for GNSS corrections in RTK or SSR configuration. Its open source interfaces demonstrate compatibility with receivers and chipsets from leading providers. The service is also compatible with any NTRIP/RTCM3 compliant receiver.
