Enhance your designs with navigation, guidance, automation, and telematics

Topcon GNSS technology can expand your products’ functionality, application coverage, and addressable markets. We provide off-the-shelf, white-label, and fully customized GNSS boards, receivers, antennas, correction services, telemetry, and software to increase your performance and competitive advantage.

Enabling Industrial IoT

Topcon uses its decades of positioning and automation experience to strengthen IoT offerings. We work with large telecoms and Industrial IoT product teams to develop:

  • Smart mobility applications as well as interconnected and autonomous vehicles
  • Lane-level and geofencing applications for V2X (vehicle to everything) and asset positioning 
  • Precise Positioning Location services to enable positioning assurance, regulation, sustainability, efficiency, and safety
  • High-accuracy services for autonomous machinery and industrial robots, such as delivery robots, robot mowers, drones and safety system wearables.

Corrections services subscriptions for products

Correction services leverage data taken from global navigation satellite systems (GNSS, sometimes called GPS). 

 

Depending on the required accuracies and start-up times, real-time kinematic (RTK) or precise point positioning (PPP) is used to determine the exact location of an asset. 

 

RTK positioning calculates the asset’s precise position within seconds in relation to a specific set of reference stations or a regional network of stations. PPP calculates precise clock, orbit, and bias data, all within a global reference framework, but with slower convergence or initialization times on the user side.

Corrections services subscriptions for products

Topnet Live service options

You can choose RTK, PPP, or bridge both with borderless service that automatically switches between regional GNSS reference networks. Bulk OEM subscription options are available that allow manufacturers to include correction services with their GNSS-based products.
