HAWK-Titan
HAWK-Titan
HAWK-Titan, developed by LOCOSYS Technology Inc., is a highly integrated navigation module designed for UAVs, autonomous vehicles, and surveying applications. It combines dual-frequency GNSS positioning, MEMS IMU, AHRS (Attitude and Heading Reference System), RTK (Real-Time Kinematic) correction, and dual-antenna heading solution. The module offers high-rate data output and robust interference resistance, making it ideal for embedded systems and dynamic environments where size, power, and accuracy are critical.
Key Technologies & Design Advantages
- Supports GPS/QZSS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou with dual-frequency reception (L1 + L5)
- Integrates high-precision MEMS gyroscope and accelerometer with low bias drift and wide dynamic range
- Built-in AHRS fuses data from IMU, magnetometer, barometer, and GNSS to deliver full attitude estimation (roll, pitch, yaw)
- RTK-enabled, compatible with RTCM 3.3 standard messages for centimeter-level positioning
- Dual-Antenna heading system achieves up to 0.1° heading accuracy, independent of magnetic interference
- Provides real-time output at up to 100 Hz, covering position, velocity, orientation, and heading
Technical Highlights
AHRS (Attitude and Heading Reference System)
By fusing IMU, magnetometer, barometer, and GNSS data, the HAWK-Titan delivers accurate 3D orientation outputs (Roll, Pitch, Yaw), maintaining high stability even in magnetic interference or high-dynamic environments.
Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU)
- Equipped with high-grade MEMS gyroscopes and accelerometers
- Low bias instability and 0.1% full-scale non-linearity
- Supports 100Hz update rate, suitable for fast control feedback and dynamic tracking
- Compact, low-power design for seamless system integration
RTK (Real-Time Kinematic Positioning)
- Fully compatible with RTCM 3.3 message types (1005, 1074, 1084, etc.)
- Provides sub-meter to centimeter-level positioning in open-sky environments
- Ideal for precision agriculture, construction surveying, and robotic navigation
Heading (Dual-Antenna Solution)
- Delivers heading accuracy from 2.0° down to 0.1°, depending on baseline length
- Provides accurate heading even in static or low-speed scenarios
- Immune to magnetic distortion, outperforming traditional magnetometer-only solutions
