  • Use our Product Selector to quickly build a recommended list of compatible products.
  • Explore our Tutorials like ArduPilot, ROS, Build a robots, for setup help and recommended product lists to get started easily.
  • Still unsure? Contact our Support team—tell us what you're building, and we'll help you review and verify your selection.

Submit Your Request in our Online Store

  • Add the items you need, just like a regular online shop.
  • When you are ready, proceed to Checkout (no worries, no payment is required).

Testimonials

What universities say

Trusted by researchers and procurement teams worldwide

The Virginia Tech Transportation Institute has used ArduSimple GNSS/RTK solutions for the past several years to support our Automated Driving Systems research on Level 2, 3, and 4 platforms. Their U-blox and Septentrio-based receivers, paired with calibrated triple-band antennas, deliver excellent performance and integrate as true plug-and-play components into our drive-by-wire control and data collection systems.
That reliability has let our teams move quickly through system integration without having to second-guess the positioning stack. Just as importantly, the ArduSimple support team has consistently been responsive and knowledgeable, helping us work through complex configuration scenarios when they came up.
The combination of well-engineered hardware and strong technical support has made ArduSimple a trusted part of our research toolkit.
