“When it comes to mass-devices or field robotics applications, and inspections for digital twin models, there are additional challenges to maintain positioning integrity and reliability in congested spaces,” he added. “Our collaboration with Fixposition offers our customers an efficient, reliable and cost-effective solution that is backed by our engineering expertise.”  

Early beta access at Intergeo 2023 to xFusion Cloud, the cloud-based Vision PPK post-processing platform by Fixposition. 

Fixposition’s xFusion real-time high-precision positioning engine is unparalleled in the robotics space. Now xFusion Cloud takes post-processing kinematics (PPK) to a whole new level by integrating vision and providing unlimited high-precision position and orientation information regardless of GNSS availability.  

“Our early access program for xFusion Cloud will empower our shared customers to enhance application positioning capability, mitigating the impact of GNSS signal obstructions on performance,” stated Lukas Meier, Co-founder and CTO of Fixposition. “With xFusion Cloud, we ensure centimetre accuracy everywhere.”

To showcase the solution in a real-world scenario, Aptella and Fixposition will present together at the upcoming IGNSS Conference in Sydney early next year.  

“We recognise the growing demand from application providers for a robust positioning solution that excels in challenging GPS scenarios. The Vision-RTK 2 delivers precision at an accessible cost, meeting their needs,” said Peter Mardaleichvili, Fixposition’s Head of Product Management. “We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with Aptella, experts in RTK GNSS technologies, to support local customers in Australia and New Zealand.” 

The need for accurate, widely available positioning precision is growing rapidly across a diverse range of applications, that are working in confined spaces or through urban environments that can obstruct or deny GNSS signals. , Fixposition has bypassed these challenges by including visual odometry and support for vehicle speed models in order to maintain position integrity. “We’re excited to work with partners throughout Australia and New Zealand to further our region’s adoption of industry-leading GNSS and sensor fusion technology, Millner added.”
