The u-blox C102-F9R application board can be used to evaluate and test the high precision sensor fusion positioning technology of the u-blox ZED F9R module. Built-in USB port provides power and high-speed communication interface. The device is compact and provides a flexible and user-friendly interface between the GNSS module and the test vehicle. It can also be used with a laptop or PC running GUI-driven u-center applications, making it the perfect companion throughout all evaluation and design phases of a project.

     u-center evaluation software provides a powerful platform for the evaluation of u-blox GNSS receivers. With the u-center, data can be recorded and visualized in real time. The u-center software includes an NTRIP client that can be used to manage RTCM correction streams from commercial services. The 14 needle provides access to functions other than those shown in the block diagram, such as using an external power source, accessing the microcontroller to update its firmware, and accessing UART2 of ZED-F9R.

     The ZED-F9R module has an integrated Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) for real-time kinematic (RTK) positioning. The built-in complex algorithm incorporates IMU data, GNSS measurements, wheel clicks, correction data, and vehicle dynamics models to provide optimal positioning accuracy in situations that GNSS alone cannot achieve. The device is a turnkey stand-alone solution that provides the best performance; There is no need to worry about delays or similar system issues. This eliminates the technical risk and effort of selecting and integrating RF components and third-party libraries such as precision positioning engines.
