This week, we are highlighting a project from Ben Dauphinee, who utilized our RTK Facet to do some DIY land surveying.
Correction data is used in surveying and navigation to enhance the accuracy of GNSS. Learn here about what types of errors it fixes, how you can use correction data in your projects, and the difference between DGNSS, RTK, SBAS, and PPP
In our latest video, we show you different methods on how to achieve millimeter-level accuracy with our lineup of RTK-capable products.
We are off this weekend in observation of the final nights of Hanukkah and Christmas! We'll be back on Tuesday, December 27th!
Our new Swarm M138 Satellite Transceiver Kit is now available along with a Limited Edition MultiStar Ornament!
Today's guest post will focus on the capabilities of Swarm, and Swarm’s network architecture in conjunction with SparkFun.
The SparkFun RTK Facet L-Band is now available along with an assembled version of our MOSFET Power Control Kit!
We have a rather unique slew of new products this week including Qwiic PIR Kits, a Satellite Transceiver Breakout, GNSS-RTK Accessories, CNC Machines, and more!
So you’re wondering what the difference is between GPS and GNSS? Good news, you’re not alone and you’ve come to the right place! In this blog, we’ll lay out the similarities, differences, and how each will fit into your next project.
From an automated mushroom farm to the first NFT in space! Read on to find out what happened at the Jan '22 Miami Hack Week!
If you’re looking to build a time-based project, you might not be aware of just how precise and accurate your timing on that can be. Our new GNSS Timing Breakout is capable of measuring time down to 5 nanoseconds. Here’s a quick look at how that type of precision is possible.
Looking for a satellite communication board for your next project? We've got three to pick from and a handy guide to use them!
The Artemis Global Tracker is now fully supported + MicroMod gets a full blown GNSS board!
A new miniature SatComm module, two fantastic electronics kits for kids, and an adjustable, cost-effective soldering iron. Happy Friday, everyone!
It always starts the same; I get an amazing new device or technology dumped in my lap. Then sets in the reality of doing my job.
Today we theorize what would happen if the B-52s wrote a song about an Iridium SatComm Module.
