GPS 1.3 Module in Development
There is no limit to perfection, so a new version of beloved GPS IMU 1.2 is being developed. Here are the main feature highlights of the new version:
- The new sensors will be used to improve the accuracy and stability of the GPS IMU.
- Improved thermal stabilization system.
- Minor redesign of case to improve useability.
- Improvement of GNSS node for better signal quality.
It is expected that the development process will be finished by the year 2023. For preorders and more information please contact us.
CAN_DRV 1.11 is Released
We are proud to announce that long waited CAN_Driver 1.11 has been released.
This is model is capable of operating 30A continuous current operating 30A continuous current (with heatsink installed) or up to 40A short-time current, and 42V of input voltage, that is twice of input parameters of the previous model and in general it is more than 3 times powerful. At the same time our engineers preserved the same form factor of the board that will allow you to upgrade your system without redesigning.
At the moment we will start to fulfill preorders, after it is done the new version will appear on retail store and product page will be updated. For more information, please contact us.
