Septentrio partners with SparkFun to accelerate development of positioning-based applications

Septentrio, a leader in high-precision GNSS* positioning solutions, announces today its collaboration with SparkFun Electronics, a major online retail store that sells the bits and pieces to make electronics projects possible.  This marks an important step in broadening Septentrio’s market reach and bringing high-quality satellite-based positioning as a mainstream solution for integrators in a variety of industrial and emerging sectors. As the partnership kicks off, SparkFun releases its first product, a breakout board embedding the Septentrio mosaic-X5 receiver module.

The mosaic module is a compact GNSS receiver delivering high-accuracy tri-band positioning with outstanding reliability due to built-in technology that allows it to be highly resilient to signal interference including jamming and spoofing**.  The new SparkFun breakout board enables users to easily log data as well as control and monitor the receiver via the web interface, without the need for any additional code.
