About us
SpacePNT SA is an innovative, low cost GNSS receiver maker for the fast-growing New Space satellite market, delivering decimetre-level positioning and timing accuracy for single satellites and LEO constellations and highest signal reception sensitivity for Moon missions, all in real-time through its unique Positioning, Navigation and Timing technology.
SpacePNT works as an agile company, with a permanent core of talented people with many years of experience in their respective domains that have entirely developed NaviLEO/NaviMoon’s hardware and software technological platform.
Our Applications
Our Solutions
NaviLEO
SpacePNT has developed NaviLEO, a high performance GNSS receiver platform designed to meet the most stringent needs and challenges of the New Space market.
NaviMoon
NaviMoon is SpacePNT’s advanced autonomous GNSS receiver solution delivering <100 m accuracy at Moon altitude and removing the reliance on costly Earth station infrastructures for Moon missions.
NaviGEO
NaviGEO is SpacePNT’s high performance solution for launcher upper stages and in-orbit servicing vehicles, with dual-antenna inputs to provide optimal GNSS visibility from LEO to GEO, no matter the attitude.
SimORBIT
SimORBIT is a high-accuracy orbital modeling software for LEO satellite simulations, bringing a new level of accuracy and realism to LEO application testing by combining the simulation of precise LEO orbits and highly accurate GNSS signals.
Technology
Heritage
SpacePNT’s core team comes from the Swiss EPFL, ranked 14th university in the world, where it has pioneered the development of high sensitivity GNSS algorithms for space exploration missions, and from Syderal Swiss, that has designed electronics and software equipment for more than 50 ESA/NASA missions without any failure.
