Micro-Ant OEM GPS

Micro-Ant Launches Micro-Ant OEM GPS Products for Direct Distribution

Jacksonville, Fla. (May 25, 2023) – – Micro-Ant, a trusted provider of custom antenna solutions, introduced antenna replacement services for their long-standing line of precision GPS antennas. The company’s new OEM GPS Product site supplies off-the-shelf GPS antennas ready for vehicle installation directly to agriculture, logistics, mining, and construction businesses and to distributors worldwide. Micro-Ant is an exclusive original equipment manufacturer (OEM) for Trimble Navigation’s agricultural antennas, using Micro-Ant’s proprietary intellectual property to produce highly accurate GPS antennas. MIcro-Ant’s unique broad-band and phase-center accurate GPS and GNSS antennas have dominated in the agricultural and mining automation markets for over a decade. 

Today, there are other emerging technologies such as autonomous vehicles, personal air transportation, and industrial robotics where millimeter-level positioning accuracy will be a technological advantage. Micro-Ant is also continuing to work with systems integrators to adapt their proven high-precision GNSS antennas into new receivers and for new applications.

There is also a growing need for after-market replacement parts in auto-navigation and auto-steering systems and for smaller farming operations to use precision agriculture to compete with large-scale operations. Micro-Ant’s existing GPS products can be purchased by farmers, construction, mining, and logistics businesses directly from the OEM website – reducing overall costs and allowing users to upgrade previously owned equipment with new parts at a fraction of the cost. For international customers, the Micro-AntOEM GPS website allows direct access to the needed product with the lowest cost of shipping, distribution, and overhead available from any supplier. 

“Precision farming, enabled by technologies such as Micro-Ant’s mm accurate antenna, has revolutionized food production. These technologies help reduce waste and improve land use while saving farm owners time and money. We want to ensure that compatible and affordable solutions are available to smaller farmers and farmers globally and are excited to start selling directly. At the same time, we’re also seeing new applications for precision GPS antennas and excited to work with systems integrators to adapt our technology to new applications. “- Charles McCarrick, Founder, and Chief Science Officer

Micro-Ant is excited to support the consumer’s need for refurbishment, repair, and replacement at a low cost. With the launch of OEM GPS, they have created a program for global distributors and repair professionals to repair units such as the Trimble NAV series, which includes their antenna inside the receiver unit.  They also work with systems integrators to adapt their proven high-precision GNSS antenna to the new Internet of things and autonomously navigating technologies.
