RoboDot RTK GPS Base or Rover Station

Description

Novel Referencing Solution

RoboDot RTK GPS receiver makes precision measurement accessible with a simple and affordable design. There are multiple ways to use it in mapping, surveying, and navigation applications. It is durable, has a flexible user interface, and has novel features that decrease setup time.

Multi Use

Use it as an RTK GPS Base station and send corrections over WiFi with NTRIP, LoRa Radio, or directly via USB. RoboDot also supports data logging for PPP workflows with online processors like OPUS. Alternatively, RoboDot operates as a smart ground control point in photogrammetry applications. RTK Rover mode is also supported through NTRIP connections over the internet or via built-in LoRa radio.

Durable

Robust, and backed by Robota’s 12-month manufacturer warranty, RoboDot is equipped to handle real-world conditions. Its IP67 enclosure blocks dust and water ingress to a depth of 1-meter.

Efficient

With runtimes over 10 hrs per charge, you can have confidence in RoboDot through the workday. When longer observation times are required, an external USB power source can provide nonstop operation.

Unique Shape

The RoboDot has a unique shape that minimizes setup time. The built-in locating tool and centering reference marks enable speedy deployment over a nail, vertex, or painted control marker. Traditional tripod mounting is also supported, but when placed directly on the ground, RoboDot serves as a ground control point in photogrammetry applications. Its standard dimensions, .5ft by .1ft provide a scale during the post-processing with photogrammetry software.

Connectivity

RoboDot connects – as a Wifi access point and station. That makes any rover with NTRIP capability compatible with RoboDot base stations. What’s more, RoboDot can be controlled with any browser-enabled device – iPhone, Android, PC, Mac, Linux, and even DJI drone controllers. Optionally RoboDot can be ordered with 915mhz Lora Radios for long-range communication between base and rover.
