Juniper Systems has announced a new version of its compact GNSS receiver with support for Apple devices.
With a low profile and sleek look, Juniper calls the Geode ‘a simple, sub-metre GNSS receiver at an affordable price’.
The new version of the Geode, the GNS2 is now compatible with iPhones and iPads via what Juniper calls its ‘Made for iPhone/iPad’ (MFi) certification.
Otherwise, the new unit seems to retain all of the Geode’s existing features and compatibility: Windows and Android devices, of course including Juniper’s own rugged Mesa 2 tablet, and other handhelds will work seamlessly with the Geode GNS2.
The pint-sized receiver picks up GPS, SBAS,GLONASS, BeiDou, GALILEO, and QZSS signals, has 162 channels and features three-channel SBAS tracking.
Juniper claims all-day life from the Geode GNS2’s battery, and it can be specified with a range of port options. A variety of accessories are available, including pole, backpack and smartphone mounts, ATV and vehicle mounts and an external antenna.
