DGPS receiver targets navigation applications
Hemisphere GPS
R131 DGPS receiver
Hemisphere GPS has announced the availability of the R131 DGPS receiver, a rack-mountable addition to the R100 series of DGPS receivers, aimed at mapping, guidance and navigation applications.
The R131 allows for consistent sub-meter performance with standard SBAS differential and Hemisphere GPS's exclusive Coast technology, which maintains accuracy during temporary loss of differential signal.
The company said the R131 provides physical advantages including a new design with rack-mountable enclosure, front-facing display, 1PPS output via an SMA connector, and a soft power switch in lieu of the traditional power switch.
The soft switch allows for ease-of-use when turning the R131 on/off when the R131 is rack mounted.
In addition, Hemisphere GPS has added a metal power connector that provides a durable connection.
The R131 offers many differential correction options such as SBAS, Omnistar, radio-beacon, and e-Dif for various environments and worldwide coverage.
It is also RTK upgradable.
The simple user interface and extensive software features make the R131 ideal for professional mapping, guidance, and navigation applications.
