Inertial navigation systems (INS) are utilised in Kalmar SmartPort

Septentrio is a globally recognised manufacturer of GNSS receivers, specialising in the design, manufacture and sale of high precision GPS/GNSS receivers that achieve decimetre or centimetre accuracy even under difficult conditions.

Kalmar chose Septentrio's AsteRx SBi3 GNSS/INS receivers for container and vehicle tracking for several reasons:

Sub-decimetre RTK positioning: The AsteRx SBi3 provides reliable positioning performance even in harsh environments such as container terminals where the line of sight to the sky is often partially obscured.
Pre-integrated industrial-grade IMU: The receiver's integrated IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) provides heading, pitch and roll angles, and enables positioning continuity in ‘dead zones’ where GPS signals are blocked.

RAIM+ Advanced Integrity Modelling: Ensures reliable uninterrupted operation, providing advanced integrity and reliability.

Intuitive User Interface: AsteRx SBi3 provides an intuitive web-based user interface for easy operation and monitoring, allowing you to control the receiver from any mobile device or computer.

AsteRx SBi3
Highly Accurate Positioning and Bearing: The AsteRx SBi3 Pro provides centimetre-level accurate and reliable IMU-enhanced GNSS positioning.
Rugged and compact IP68 waterproof enclosure: Suitable for use in harsh industrial environments, ensuring stable operation in a variety of environments.
Single-antenna GNSS/INS: Provides direction, pitch and roll angles, suitable for systems that require positioning in a variety of conditions.

AIM+ unique interference monitoring and anti-jamming system: along with advanced additional GNSS+ algorithms, is capable of delivering quad-constellation, multi-band, full-field-of-view RTK positioning, making it capable of providing reliable centimetre-level positioning, as well as 3D bearings, even in challenging environments.
