Can Septentrio receivers be integrated into custom systems or embedded systems?

Yes, Septentrio GNSS receivers are designed for seamless integration into custom and embedded systems, offering flexibility at every level — from hardware form factor to data output.

Key integration features :

• Flexible interfaces: Support for common communication protocols such as UART, USB, Ethernet and CAN— adaptable to embedded systems, industrial machines, UAVs, robotics and more.
• Customizable output formats: Septentrio receivers provide full support for industry-standard formats like NMEA and RTCM, as well as Septentrio's Binary Format (SBF) for high-performance, real-time integrations and advanced applications. (e.g. receiver software like RxTools, RxCommand, RxLogger;enable full control over receiver configuration, data logging, and output formats.
• Fully documented protocols & tools: we provide a stable and thoroughly documented Interface Control Document (ICD) for its binary protocol, along with sample code and parsing libraries to accelerate development and reduce integration effort.
• Backward compatibility: Septentrio ensures long-term compatibility and support across firmware updates, making it easy to maintain or upgrade systems without changing software infrastructure.
• Versatile hardware options : choose from
  • Rugged and ultra-rugged boxed receivers
  • OEM boards
  • Compact and ultra-compact modules (ideal for space- or power-constrained designs)

Available in both GNSS only and GNSS + INS variants, depending on integration needs:
With FUSE+ sensor fusion technology, GNSS/INS receivers provide:

• Enhanced positioning performance in GNSS-challenged environments (e.g., near tall buildings or under partial canopy)
• Orientation data (heading, pitch, and roll)
• High integrity via advanced sensor fusion and cross-checking
• Flexible integration with additional sensors like IMUs, odometry, LiDAR, and cameras

Whether you're building next-gen autonomous platforms, precision agriculture systems, robotics, scientific instruments, or navigation-grade IoT devices, Septentrio receivers offer the integration flexibility, documentation, and reliability you need to succeed.
