Topcon Positioning Systems (TPS) has announced the MR-1 Heading System, an OEM GNSS solution for high-performance positioning and heading applications on moving platforms.
Using the MR-1 receiver and Topcon’s patented MG-A8 antenna, the system provides “centimeter-accurate RTK positioning and better than 1/10 of a degree heading accuracy in challenging environments,” said Doug Langen, TPS GNSS product manager.

The ruggedized MR-1 receiver is water- and dustproof and operates at an operational temperature range of -40°C to 75°C and offers high-quality multipath rejection and increased resistance to near-band interference from the satellite communications systems that are commonly found in marine applications, according to the company.
When combined with Topcon’s Quartz Lock Loop technology, the MR-1 offers continuous operation during extreme vibration and shock, typical of intense dynamic environments, Langen said.
