Shanghai-based maker of GNSS/satellite positioning receivers and systems for surveying, agriculture and autonomous machinery.
Sells positioning receivers, antennas and software as equipment, with surveying firms, farm-machinery makers and automated-vehicle developers buying them to reach centimetre-level accuracy. Orders follow customers' equipment cycles, such as land-survey work, farm machinery sales and vehicle programme starts.
In one line: A smaller, China-focused Trimble.
Moat: narrow (IP / patents, process know-how). High-precision GNSS algorithms and hardware integration are hard to replicate quickly.
