Corporate marketsensingCurated record

Skylark Precise Positioning Service is a cloud-based GNSS correction network using advanced atmospheric modelling to improve GPS accuracy from meters to centimeters for autonomous vehicles, outdoor robots, drones, and micromobility. The Swift Automotive Suite provides vehicle localization software, and the company runs a hardware partner ecosystem (receivers/modules) rather than manufacturing its own receivers at scale today. Skylark powers 10M+ ADAS-enabled and autonomous vehicles and supports programs for 20+ automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers plus robotics companies; it is integrated with the NVIDIA DRIVE AGX autonomous-vehicle compute platform. Skylark is ISO 26262-certified for automotive functional safety and delivers continuous 2 cm RTK accuracy across Western Europe.
