Case Study: Team Bumblebee wins RoboSub awards with SBG Systems' Ellipse-D

Team Bumblebee wins 1st place in 3 RoboSub 2023 awards with SBG Systems

Team Bumblebee, a student team from the National University of Singapore, needed a high-precision inertial navigation system for their autonomous maritime vehicles. Their challenge was to achieve precise localization and navigation in a demanding marine environment, requiring robust hardware with specific accuracy and connectivity features. They selected the Ellipse-D sensor from SBG Systems to meet their needs.

SBG Systems provided the team with the Ellipse-D, a dual-antenna GNSS system that delivered accurate orientation data and eliminated magnetic interference. The solution was praised for its ease of integration, durable waterproof casing, and the vendor's exceptional technical support and documentation. As a result, Team Bumblebee achieved significant success, including emerging as champions at the Maritime Robosub Challenge 2023 and winning multiple first-place awards for autonomy, system assessment, and website design.
