The Challenge
As vehicles and machines evolve toward higher levels of automation, positioning becomes the foundation for safe and reliable operation. Basic telematics can’t keep up, while traditional high-end inertial systems are costly and hard to scale. OEMs need a solution that is ready for autonomy — delivering continuous, accurate performance across environments.

The Solution
AUTO is TDK Trusted Positioning’s most advanced software, designed to enable autonomy today and in the future. By fusing GNSS with inertial sensors, radar, cameras, and other perception systems, AUTO delivers the most robust, real-time positioning data available. With ultra-fast response and continuous accuracy, AUTO gives OEMs the confidence to scale autonomy across passenger, commercial, and off-road platforms.

Key Benefits
Autonomy-ready
Built to support ADAS and higher levels of vehicle automation (L2+ to L5) with decimeter-level accuracy in urban GNSS outages.
Continuous positioning
Reliable in tunnels, urban canyons, and GNSS-degraded areas. Radar input ensures consistent performance in fog, rain, snow, or darkness.
Advanced sensor fusion
Integrates radar and perception sensors with inertial sensors for comprehensive reliability and perception-based redundancy.
Real-time response
0.01-second latency supports control and decision-making systems.
Future-proof design
Hardware-independent and adaptable across industries. Provides the freedom to utilize the components of your choice.
Applications

Autonomous vehicles
Positioning foundation for robotaxis, trucks, and personal vehicles.

ADAS Applications
Reliable support for lane keeping, automated parking, and collision avoidance.

Off-road autonomy
Mining, agriculture, and construction equipment operating with limited GNSS.

Delivery vehicles and robots
As the First Mile, Middle Mile, and Last Mile vehicles in the end-to-end logistics chain.

Platform Integration
AUTO runs as embedded software on the device, ensuring low latency and high reliability. It does not depend on cloud connectivity or dedicated hardware, giving OEMs maximum flexibility. If you would like more clarification about integrating this software into your platform, contact us.
Being an embedded software solution means there is no need to install specific hardware or a cloud service.
We are able to deliver position updates in real-time because our software does not need an app or Cloud service to operate. This ensures rapid and reliable results with minimal latency.
Our software is hardware-independent and software-agnostic, giving you the freedom and flexibility to choose the sensors or work with the existing ones.
