Furuno, a provider of the most accurate timing devices, is pleased to announce that the multi-GNSS receiver chip, eRideOPUS 9 (Model: ePV9000B), has been awarded the Technology Innovation Award of the Year 2022 by Alps Alpine.

This award is given annually to a company that has made significant contributions to the technological advancement of Alps Alpine. The ePV9000B is highly rated by the business prospects with sub-meter level accuracy, as well as the contributions to the development of business schemes. It is an honour to be selected for this award.

Multi-GNSS receiver chip

The ePV9000B is a GNSS receiver chip that achieves high-precision positioning with an accuracy of 50 cm without the need for correction data. It is compatible with all operational positioning satellites from the United States, Russia, Europe, China, Japan, and India. It can receive signals in both the L1 and L5 frequency bands.

Moreover, it does not require reference station data or correction data like PPP or RTK. This allows for stable and high-precision positioning without regional limitations. It eliminates the need for RTK reference and the correction data receiver for high-cost performance, which makes significant contributions to the practical implementation of V2X and ADAS.
