Insights
Trimble's partnership with STMicroelectronics represents a significant strategic move in the precise positioning technology landscape. By integrating Trimble's ProPoint Go positioning engine with ST's new Teseo VI GNSS chipsets, the companies are addressing critical technical challenges in the positioning market.
The quad-band GNSS support (L1, L2, L5, and E6) in ST's chipset is particularly noteworthy as it substantially improves positioning reliability in challenging environments like urban canyons where buildings block satellite signals. When combined with Trimble's correction services, this enables centimeter-level accuracy - a important threshold for advanced applications like autonomous driving.
What makes this partnership technically distinctive is the ASIL-C certification for correction data, which is essential for safety-critical automotive systems. This certification level indicates the solution meets rigorous automotive safety standards, potentially accelerating adoption in ADAS and autonomous vehicle applications where positioning failures could have serious consequences.
The integration also shows Trimble's evolving approach to market penetration - embedding their positioning technology directly into chipsets rather than solely providing standalone solutions. This creates a more scalable distribution model for their correction services and positioning algorithms across mass-market applications.
This Trimble-STMicroelectronics collaboration directly addresses one of the most persistent challenges in autonomous vehicle development - achieving reliable, precise positioning in all environments. The automotive applications highlighted in the announcement, including navigation, ADAS, and cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X) communications, represent critical growth segments in the industry.
The first-in-market ASIL-C certified correction data is particularly significant for automotive OEMs who face stringent safety requirements. This certification level indicates the positioning system can be integrated into safety-relevant vehicle functions, potentially simplifying the regulatory approval process for advanced driver assistance features.
Beyond traditional automotive applications, this technology also enables more precise navigation for emerging mobility solutions like robotaxis and autonomous delivery vehicles. The emphasis on "challenging GNSS scenarios" suggests the solution addresses positioning limitations that have historically slowed autonomous vehicle deployment in complex urban environments.
For automotive manufacturers, the integrated nature of this solution potentially reduces integration complexity and time-to-market - critical factors in the highly competitive ADAS space. As vehicles become increasingly automated, positioning systems with centimeter-level accuracy and safety certification will likely transition from optional features to essential components in automotive architecture.
Collaboration Enables Easier, More Scalable Precise Positioning Capabilities
The combined solution is ideal for applications such as automotive navigation, advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), cellular vehicle-to-everything (C-V2X), field robotics and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The Teseo VI GNSS receiver enhances signal availability and accuracy by supporting quad-band GNSS (L1, L2, L5, and E6), which improves performance in challenging environments such as urban canyons.
The Trimble ProPoint Go positioning engine is designed to deliver high-accuracy position and orientation data by utilizing globally accessible Trimble correction services. The combination of ProPoint Go with STMicroelectronics' Teseo VI ensures precise and reliable centimeter-level positions, velocities and time. With quad-frequency GNSS signal support and Trimble ProPoint Go's first-in-market Automotive Safety Integrity Level-C (ASIL-C) certified correction data, this positioning ecosystem helps companies enhance their automated driving capabilities with a focus on safety. It also helps drive accuracy for IoT applications such as field robotics and autonomous lawn mowers.
"We are committed to bringing the most accurate position and orientation data for improved positioning performance in challenging environments," said Olivier Casabianca, vice president, advanced positioning at Trimble. "Our ongoing collaboration with STMicroelectronics provides a robust, reliable, and cost-effective solution for a wide range of automotive and industrial applications."
Key Advantages of ProPoint Go with Teseo VI Include:
- High-accuracy worldwide support with Trimble RTX®
- Fusion with IMU sensors, ideal for challenging GNSS scenarios (tunnels, urban canopies, etc.)
- Integrity and protection levels support
- Mass-market applications
- Scalable, global solution
"Trimble and STMicroelectronics have worked together for several years to deliver reliable localization and measurement data from a variety of sensors," said Luca Celant, digital, audio and signal solutions division general manager at STMicroelectronics. "With this collaboration, the industry will benefit from a quicker path to market for precise positioning applications."
