At OXTS we’re passionate about inertial navigation and how we can help our customers with our technology. With two decades of experience in combining the best of high precision GNSS receivers and world-class inertial navigation expertise, OXTS’ products have become the industry standard for automotive testing and are widely used in other industries.
The highly accurate RT3000 products are the equipment of choice for vehicle dynamics testing. Our products are used by major car manufacturers and automotive test facilities around the world for applications such as handling and dynamics evaluation, brake testing, steering robot guidance and many more. With the RT-Range S products, OXTS also offers a complete solution for validating advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) to Euro and global NCAP standards and for developing the self-driving cars of the future.
Away from the automotive world, our range of combined, compact GNSS/INS systems are also used for airborne and vehicle-based survey and mobile mapping applications, where continuous position and high accuracy orientation information is essential for georeferencing sensor data.
OXTS’ GNSS/INS products are supplied with a comprehensive software suite including powerful data analysis and post-processing applications. We also provide a full technical support service, plus a bespoke technology integration consultancy via our Application Engineering department. Our products are sold and supported globally through a network of channel partners in more than 20 countries worldwide, to provide customers with a local point of contact and support.
