Wearable Technology Firm Achieves Centimetre-Level Accuracy with Next-Gen GNSS

A pioneering wearable technology company is taking a major step forward in positioning accuracy, moving from the ZED-F9P to the X20P module in its latest designs. In a recent technical consultation led by Alpha Micro’s Senior Applications Engineer, the team explored: 

• Antenna optimisation — with a helical option identified as the preferred solution
  
  
• Migration strategies — ensuring a smooth transition from F9 to X20
  
  
• High-precision performance — using PointPerfect and NTRIP services to achieve centimetre-level accuracy

These innovations demonstrate how wearable devices are evolving beyond simple tracking, providing accuracy and reliability critical for next-generation IoT and safety applications.

What makes this possible is more than just technology. Unlike traditional distributors, design-based component distribution ensures companies receive expert technical input at every stage of development. This approach brings together best-in-class franchise partners, product knowledge and wireless expertise to unlock innovation in real-world designs.

For businesses developing positioning and communication solutions for IoT or M2M, this combination of innovation, reliability and security is essential.
