*u-blox celebrates half a billion GNSS receivers sold*
*Thalwil, Switzerland - September 5, 2019 -* u-blox (SIX:UBXN), a global
supplier of leading positioning and wireless communication technologies, is
pleased to announce that it recently sold its 500 millionth global
navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver. As the only technology capable
of delivering absolute position anywhere on the planet, GNSS-based
positioning has found its way into a wide range of consumer, industrial, and
automotive applications, allowing connected devices to efficiently qualify
the origin of transmitted data with accurate time and position information.
u-blox's portfolio of GNSS receivers targets a broad range of established
and emerging applications and use cases. Standard meter-level GNSS
receivers, which are the dominant solution today, continue to become
smaller, lower cost, and more power efficient. Meanwhile, the market for
high-precision GNSS receivers for automotive and consumer applications is
increasing rapidly. Additionally, we're seeing the first automotive
applications requiring functional safety for highly automated driving.
"It's been thrilling to watch GNSS technology evolve over these past two
decades from an expensive niche technology to one we use every day," says
u-blox CEO Thomas Seiler. "We're excited to see how our GNSS technology will
continue to empower our customers to develop innovative solutions for our
connected future. Thank you to everyone at u-blox, to our many customers,
and our investors for their trust and accompanying us along this unrelenting
journey."
