Facilitating mass adoption of L3 driving in challenging environments
Focal Point Positioning
As OEMs continue to expand their automated driving capabilities, the importance of high-quality sensors becomes increasingly important to improve the capability of their automated driver assistance systems (ADAS) or extend the networks of existing offerings. This expansion will take two forms: lowering the cost of L3 systems to make them affordable to the mass market, and making L3 driving possible in more challenging environments.
The low cost and small form factor of GNSS chips can help to make L3 systems accessible to OEMs at mass-market prices. As a sensor, GNSS has many advantages including the ubiquity of GNSS signals, meaning it can provide position, navigation and timing (PNT) anywhere with a view of the sky. It is these characteristics that are driving the growth of GNSS in the automotive sector.
As an innovator of GNSS technology, Focal Point Positioning is helping to bridge the gap to vehicle autonomy and playing a vital role in improving road safety and efficiency.
At this year’s expo, the company will demonstrate the benefits of its next-generation GNSS technology – S-GNSS Auto. It handles the complexities of accurate and safe GNSS positioning in challenging environments and, in recent OEM trials, has successfully provided up to 10x accuracy improvements, enabling the expansion of ADAS functionality.
Most new vehicles include an onboard GNSS that provides functions including route guidance, map localization and ADAS. Maximizing the performance of this existing GNSS, S-GNSS Auto is powered by Focal Point Positioning’s award-winning Supercorrelation technology, and works by enhancing the GNSS receiver’s measurement engine. As a software upgrade to an existing GNSS chipset, it delivers an invaluable absolute positioning solution, improving vehicle position accuracy and integrity while enhancing cybersecurity.
In collaboration with OEMs, chipset partners, Tier 1s and navigation engine suppliers, Focal Point Positioning can considerably boost GNSS receiver accuracy, integrity and security for today’s ADAS and tomorrow’s fully autonomous vehicles.
Visitors to Focal Point Positioning’s booth can experience how this latest GNSS technology can strike an optimal balance between safety, innovation and speed-to-market as an integral part of their R&D strategies.
