ExtremeRTKTM

Oscar GNSS Receiver is the State-of-the-Art GNSS Receiver developped and built from scratch by Tersus GNSS.
With advanced features such as calibration-free tilt compensation and a high-performance multi-constellation and multi-frequency GNSS board, Oscar offers supreme accuracy and stable signal detection even in demanding environments such as urban canyons and under canopy.

Various connectivity modes like UHF radio, 4G and WiFi allow communication via different networks and for various applications. Tersus Caster Service lets you transmit correction data to any device via 4G, UHF or WiFi. Besides being a excellent choice for daily surveying work in most challenging environments, Oscar is also a perfect solution for UAV RTK base stations. Its high-performance antenna ensures quick time to first fix and improved anti-jamming performance.

The replaceable large capacity battery powers Oscar for up to 8 hours in 4G or UHF radio mode. Rugged and IP68 rated, Oscar is a excellent, highly accurate, reliable and - most important - affordable GNSS receiver. Choose from three versions: Basic, Advanced and Ultimate, and experience
