We are the only company which have technology that can be offered as IP or module (H / W) proprietary developed and optimized based on customer's needs on satellite positioning technology typified by GPS and related element technologies.
Especially as regards its high position sensitivity and positioning precision both self and others boast the world's best.
Our L1 Multi GNSS RTK module which is low cost and has a positioning precision of 1cm or less (fixed point) is paid much attention by major tractors, agricultural equipment manufacturers, industrial equipment, crane makers, drone makers, etc. So we are developing and supplying for automatic operation and monitoring.
We are exhibiting at IoT town with Autonomous Control Systems Laboratory Ltd.
Next generation high precision multi-frequency multi-GNSS receiver
Four Quasi-Zenith Satellite(QZS) will be full-scale operation in year 2018. MSJ new receiver which can receive L6 signal from QZS is the high precision multi-frequency GNSS receiver and its cost would be less than 1/10 compared with conventional high precision receiver. Thus, further acceleration to launch of autonomous driving of farm machine, construction machine, industrial machine, drone and robot would be expected. We have much expectations to lead to industrial revitalization in Japan as the result of developing this receiver, while overseas manufacturers have large share due to technological reason.

High Precision L1 Multi GNSS RTK Solution
High Precision L1 Multi GNSS RTK Solution uses RTK(Real Time Kinematic) GNSS system.
RTK is the method for measuring rovers position in real time by means of observation corrections which be transmitted from a known position (base station) to the rover through wireless or mobile network. The measuring method which is different from the code phase method which is popular for car navigation or mobile phone is able to get further high-precision position by using carrier phase and observation correction.
Additionally, increasing visible satellites by supporting not only GPS but also other satellite systems contributes to better stable positioning. RTK system which can provide centimeter class accuracy is growing in popularity for not only survey purpose but also for automatic operation for agricultural or construction machine.
