Cubepilot HerePro Multi-RTK GPS Without iStand
by CubePilot

Overview

Here Pro is a professional high precision Multi-band RTK GNSS module for UAVs, which features small size and light weight. It supports various GNSS options such as BeiDou, Galileo, GLONASS, GPS, QZSS. Based on the market-leader F9P from uBlox, with built-in STM32H753 chip, HerePro has a powerful processing performance for real-time data processing and data optimization. Connecting 2 HerePro modules, as base and rover respectively, can complete a precise Multi-band Multi-GNSS RTK system. Using multi-frequency DGNSS signals and advanced algorithm, the base station can complete convergence and transmission of the differential data in seconds, achieving more reliable and stable centimeter level positioning. The HerePro rover and base are identical in both software and hardware. Parameter setting is the only distinction.

HerePro uses multi-frequency DGNSS signals with advanced algorithms to converge on an RTK Fix in seconds, achieving more reliable centimeter level positioning.

Navigation and positioning

HerePro equipped with high-precision multi-band, multi-constellation real-time kinematic positioning navigation module. It utilizes advanced algorithms and multi-band DGNSS signals to quickly achieve an RTK Fix within seconds. This results in highly reliable positioning at an accuracy within centimeters.

Multiple application scenarios

HerePro is a high-precision navigation module capable of switching to RTK ground base station mode and obtaining data from network base stations. When two HerePro modules are used simultaneously, it can achieve GPS for Yaw (UXV heading), minimizing magnetic field interference to ensure stable UXV operation.

Plug and play

HerePro is embedded with USB Type-C power supply, providing up to 5V/3A input. Once set up in RTK base mode, users can activate HerePro by connecting it to a computer via a USB Type-C cable.

Dual-Core Processor

The built-in high-performance dual-core MCU provides powerful processing capabilities, efficient data computing, and enhances the UXV's development potential and security.

Programmable ProfiLEDs

HerePro is built with 50 ProfiLEDs surrounding it, offering creative LED lighting effects. It also features programmable LEDs to indicate the status of the UXV.

Wide input range and dual power redundancy

The redundant design of the 6-60V dual power supply offers flexibility in power input and ensures stable power supply during flight.

DroneCAN support

HerePro utilizes the standard DroneCAN protocol, incorporating a dual CAN bus configuration that offers strong expansion capabilities, excellent anti-interference properties, and high transmission rates.

Integrated EMMC storage

Upgrading HerePro from an SD card to EMMC reduces interference and errors during data transmission, resulting in improved storage reliability and transmission rates.

Open for development

The firmware is based on AP_Periph or other options, offering greater flexibility and scalability. Customers can easily customize and upgrade their firmware according to their specific needs.
