Welcome to the future of GPS technology with the SparkFun ZED-F9R GPS pHAT. This isn't just any GPS board; it's a high-precision, sensor fusion marvel that boasts top-tier configuration options and leverages u-blox's cutting-edge Automotive Dead Reckoning (ADR) technology.

Stellar Accuracy and Performance

Equipped with the ZED-F9R module, this pHAT is a powerhouse. Featuring an 184-channel u-blox F9 engine GNSS receiver, it can tap into GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou constellations, delivering jaw-dropping accuracy of approximately 0.01 meters! This precision is achievable through RTK navigation when paired with a correction source. Keep in mind, the ZED-F9R functions solely as a rover, necessitating a connection to a base station. It supports simultaneous reception from four GNSS systems, and its fusion of GNSS and 3D sensor data ensures real-time positioning at up to 30Hz.

Unwavering Performance in Challenging Environments

Urban jungles and dense areas are no match for the ZED-F9R. This module excels where others falter, maintaining continuous, accurate positioning even under poor signal conditions or complete signal loss—think short tunnels and parking garages. It's the go-to solution for autonomous robotic applications demanding pinpoint accuracy in tough settings.

Easy Integration and Versatile Compatibility

Integrating the ZED-F9R with your setup is a breeze. It uses the Raspberry Pi's serial UART for communication and comes with pre-soldered headers—no soldering needed! Stack it onto a Raspberry Pi, NVIDIA Jetson Nano, Google Coral, or any 2x20 form factor single-board computer effortlessly. Plus, a few 0.1"-spaced pins and a Qwiic connector are broken out for those needing additional connections.

Comprehensive Configuration Options

The ZED-F9R is configurable through the feature-rich, albeit dense, u-center software. Adjust baud rates, update rates, set up geofencing, spoofing detection, and more. Tinker to your heart's content and tailor the module to your specific needs.

Rapid Start with Onboard Battery

Say goodbye to long wait times. The ZED-F9R includes an onboard rechargeable battery powering the RTC, slashing the time-to-first fix from ~24 seconds (cold start) to a mere ~2 seconds (hot start). It maintains RTC and GNSS orbit data even when not connected to power, keeping you ready to go at a moment's notice.

The SparkFun ZED-F9R GPS pHAT is also equipped with an on-board rechargeable battery that provides power to the RTC on the ZED-F9R. This reduces the time-to-first fix from a cold start (~24s) to a hot start (~2s). The battery will maintain RTC and GNSS orbit data without being connected to power for plenty of time.

This product requires an antenna: Any GNSS receiver will be fine, this board uses a U.FL antenna connector but you can also use an adaptor if needed

Perfect, it fits like a glove.
Color: 1-Navy Blue
I really liked the sleeve, the navy blue color looks very elegant and the material feels resistant but soft to the touch. What I like the most is that the back is translucent, so you still see the design of the tablet. It works great for watching videos because it stands firm when folding it, and turning off the screen alone when closing it is very practical. Because of the price it has, the quality is excellent.

Great Protective Case for My Mother’s iPad
Color: 2-Watermelon Red, Color: 2-Watermelon Red
I bought this case along with my mother’s new iPad, and it was the perfect choice. The watermelon red color looks beautiful with the pink iPad and gives it a very clean and stylish look. The case feels sturdy without adding too much weight, which makes it comfortable for her to carry around and use every day. The stand feature works really well for watching videos, reading, and video calls. I also like that the case supports the auto wake and sleep function, which makes the iPad feel even more convenient and easy to use. The cutouts fit perfectly, and Touch ID still works without any issues. The translucent back is a nice touch because it still lets the iPad color show through while keeping it protected from scratches and bumps. Overall, this case exceeded expectations and makes a great addition for anyone wanting both protection and style for their iPad.

Good product. What you see is what you get.
Color: 1-Navy Blue
Material feels sturdy and was a perfect fit compatible for my iPad. There's adequate grip and padding for a comfortable yet slim feel. Magnets hold it close and in one position when propping it up for watching landscape videos. Back is translucent as advertised. Solid product, put it on as i opened my new ipad for immediate protection. Perfectly safe blind buy if you're also getting that 'frequently bought together' suggestion from Amazon.
