Product Information

The Trimble AP20 GNSS-Inertial System is an embedded GNSS-Inertial OEM board set plus Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) in a compact form factor. It is designed to give system integrators the ability to harness the best in GNSS multi-frequency positioning technology, with the superior capabilities of inertial data for continuous mobile positioning in poor signal environments, and for the orientation of imaging sensors.

The Trimble AP20 features a high performance precision GNSS receiver and the industry leading Applanix IN-Fusion™ GNSS-Inertial integration technology running on a powerful, dedicated Inertial Engine (IE) board. This flexible, modular design ensures the ability to perform full high-powered GNSS-inertial processing without sacrificing performance, and an upgrade path to next generation GNSS boards as they become available.
