ADU 1401: Are AeroPoints Worth It? Propeller Costs vs. Drone RTK Alternatives
P
3:29PaulHOST
Um, it just, I don't get it.
P
3:31PaulHOST
A lot more people are moving to RTK anyway.
P
3:36PaulHOST
Why? Starts with Elon Musk.
R
3:39RobHOST
Starlink, baby.
P
4:05PaulHOST
[laughs]
R
4:07RobHOST
It was awesome.
P
4:08PaulHOST
So when you can have cellular data anywhere for 50 bucks a month, um, you can get the Starlink and the RTK and it still be cheaper than Arrow Points.
P
4:19PaulHOST
So it kind of negates the problem solution or value proposition of Arrow Points.
Relentless: Zipline’s 1M Drone Deliveries a Day Vision with Keller Cliffton

Bugs, raccoons, birds, hail, lightning, dust, temperatures from 40 degrees Celsius to minus 20, even solar weather interfering with GPS.
S

They use military-grade dual-band RTK differential GPS and spent the past year hardening systems through the worst part of a solar cycle.
S
2:39speaker_0NARRATOR
What about the company's structure? How do they move fast at this scale? They keep it lean, with small, empowered teams instead of traditional middle management.
S
2:49speaker_0NARRATOR
Velocity matters at hyperscale.
WOO 5.0 | 3D?? | The Megapod

24:14Raleigh FloresGUEST
I mean, we've been working on next iterations as well, different mounts that allow us to mount sensors on the kite.
R
24:22Raleigh FloresGUEST
We've done a test run with sending Leo out with 19 sensors and RTK GPS and basically tracking every little motion from his lower arm to his lower leg to his head to the wingtip of the kite and visualizing that.
R
24:44Raleigh FloresGUEST
So sure, I mean, there's got to be a balance in putting sensors on the material and that's not affecting the flight characteristics of a kite.
R
24:56Raleigh FloresGUEST
um but also um there is definitely loads of data um which they might be interested in and i mean down the line we can we can run a complete comparison of each of the products on the market and like now really uh quantify those terms of like which kite turns the fastest which kites which kite pulls the most and that sort of stuff not sure all everyone in the industry will like this but uh The data is going to be there for sure.
Tech Guide #707 - Australians spend big on smartphones, robot lawn mower review
S
27:38Stephen FenechHOST
Now, setup was pretty simple.
S
27:40Stephen FenechHOST
You need to find a spot for the charging station, and you also need to install the RTK.
S
27:46Stephen FenechHOST
Now, that's real-time kinematic beacon.
S
27:50Stephen FenechHOST
Now, that RTK positioning system, it boosts GPS accuracy from a few meters down to just a couple of centimeters.
S
27:59Stephen FenechHOST
That's important for a robot mower, so it knows its way around.
S
28:02Stephen FenechHOST
Uh, you gotta...
S
28:03Stephen FenechHOST
So the, the mower was on its charging stand, obviously it needs power and, and thankfully there was a nice long cord that you can put out the back of it and we've got an outdoor power point in our place, uh, and Wi-Fi as well out there, so easy to connect it.
S
28:16Stephen FenechHOST
The RTK goes on a, on top of a pole and that sits just close.

Kasi gets a robot vacuum
A
29:35AnnaHOST
So, like, this kinda works with lawns because lawns look really different from things that you don't wanna mow.
A
29:41AnnaHOST
And there's something called RTK GPS positioning.
A
29:46AnnaHOST
So this is, like, down to the centimeter talking to a satellite, and you can map out areas in your garden.
A
29:54AnnaHOST
So if you got one of these, it would come with an app, and it would show you a picture of your garden, and you would basically paint out areas where you didn't want that robot to go.
A
31:14AnnaHOST
Or-
C
31:15CaseyHOST
It is a pretty flat garden.
A
31:17AnnaHOST
No matter what, if you're shopping for something, you should look for something with RTK GPS positioning, and you have NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory to have to thank for that.
C
31:27CaseyHOST
Yeah.
