Swift Navigation, a San Francisco-based startup building centimeter-accurate GPS technology to power autonomous vehicles, is teaming up with Carnegie Robotics, makers of robotic components and systems.
This technology-focused alliance will yield a line of navigation products for autonomous vehicles, outdoor robotics and machine control, the first of which will be announced on May 8, 2017 at the AUVSI Xponential 2017 event in Dallas, TX, according to Swift Navigation.
Swift Navigation solutions utilize real-time kinematics (RTK) technology, providing location solutions that it says are 100 times more accurate than traditional GPS, at a fraction of the cost.
The team at Carnegie Robotics (CRL) has decades of experience successfully transitioning state-of-the-art technologies from early design into commercial use in precision agriculture, machine control, autonomous vehicles, as well as industrial and military robots.
