Renu Robotics was founded to address initiatives to control cost in industries related to agriculture and renewable energy. Their fully autonomous electrical robot, RenuBot, can be fitted with different implements to perform various functions, for example mowing grass at a utility-scale solar farm. The mosaic-X5 GNSS module is integrated into the latest RenuBot model 3.0, providing reliable centimeter-level RTK positioning even in difficult environments and extending operation times thanks to its low power consumption.

The mosaic-X5 module was easy to integrate and provided us the positioning information we needed for safe and accurate autonomous navigation.
