Autonomous solutions require reliability and accuracy to effectively operate in their working environments. Whether it’s an autonomous parking and valet robot or industrial mower, customers need to be sure they have access to state-of-the-art GNSS positioning technology that puts them dead center of what’s truly possible. Integrating Trimble’s high-precision GNSS solutions into an application helps reduce development times and boost production and efficiency. With the ease product of integration, technical support available 24/7 and over 40 years of testing and engineering, Trimble customers will be unstoppable in the field, only if they choose to be.
As a recognized manufacturer of high-precision positioning solutions, the Trimble InTech team aims to provide technology that maximizes productivity and enhances profitability for their customers. The products and solutions available utilize a start-to-finish approach that enables integrators to take advantage of a complete technology package that provides robust precision accuracy and fully streamlined integration for an application.
Trimble customers, Vitirover and Stanley Robotics, have integrated its’ high-precision GNSS technology into their applications to tackle some of their toughest challenges:
- Vitirover: Developing the Autonomous Industrial Mower for Managing Vegetation on Large Surfaces
- Stanley Robotics: Improving the Accuracy of “Stan” – A Fully Autonomous Outdoor Parking and Valet Robot
Vitirover Uses Trimble Technology in their Autonomous Industrial Mower
Application:
Autonomous Industrial Mower
Trimble Products Used:
Trimble MB-Two Receiver and LV59 Antenna
Vitirover developed an industrial and agricultural maintenance machine built to adapt and manage vegetation and grassing on all large surfaces. The navigational heart of the robot includes a Trimble MB-Two high performance, dual-frequency receiver with a RTK/PPP positioning engine.
The development of the Vitirover robot emerged with an idea to eliminate the limitations in functionality of other automated mowers. Automated mowers typically have mechanical limits, operating within a wired space that must be installed and must be plugged in to collect energy for operation. The end goal was to develop a solution with no mechanical limits.

Stanley Robotics Uses Trimble Technology to Improve the Accuracy of “Stan” – A Fully Autonomous Outdoor Parking and Valet Robot
Application:
Outdoor Parking and Valet Robot
Trimble Products Used:
Trimble BX992 GNSS Enclosure, Trimble AV59 Antenna
Effective high-density car storage solutions require vehicles to be moved from outside to inside and parked with high-precision navigational accuracy. To avoid the costs of human drivers, a smart and fully autonomous system is required. Stanley Robotics developed a solution that incorporates fully autonomous robots and intelligent storage management software that moves cars into place with efficiency and ease.

Advanced Multipath Mitigation with Everest™ Plus: In the mid-1990s
Trimble introduced the patented Everest™ multipath rejection technology based on advanced digital signal processing. Within the satellite signal tracking loops, the reflected multipath signals were processed and ultimately rejected. Learn how with the introduction of Maxwell™ 7 Technology Trimble receivers have significantly improved the multipath mitigation performance.
