Triple-band GPS antenna for connection to the MAD Sensor XD, supplied without cable or connector

The MADINTEC triple-band GPS antenna is a critical component designed to integrate specifically with the MAD Sensor XD. It is part of the MADBrain autopilot system and provides high-precision positioning data.

Its primary function is to acquire high-precision positioning data. This information is critical for the artificial intelligence algorithms powering the MADBrain autopilot, enabling ultra-fine true wind calculation and advanced boat attitude analysis.

Triple-band technology significantly improves the accuracy and reliability of positioning. It allows the antenna to receive signals from multiple satellite constellations simultaneously, which is critical for high-performance autopilot systems where every tenth of a degree of helm movement counts.

The antenna provides high-resolution positioning data directly to the MAD Sensor XD. This synergy ensures precise data transmission, essential for ultra-fine true wind calculation and advanced boat attitude analysis. It enables the MADBrain to anticipate trajectories, deliver unmatched course stability, and minimize ram actions as well as energy consumption.

Yes, the MADINTEC triple-band GPS antenna is derived from offshore racing and America's Cup engineering. It is optimized for the high-performance and precision requirements encountered in these environments, but it is also accessible to all sailors to improve the performance and safety of their sailboat.

The antenna ensures smooth and precise course-keeping, even in unstable conditions. It allows the MADBrain system to react instantly to wind variations, swell, or boat behavior changes, applying subtle corrections that prevent overreaction. This results in smoother navigation and increased stability, especially over long distances.

Yes. By providing highly accurate positioning data, the antenna enables the MADBrain autopilot to optimize every helm movement. This results in fewer actuator actions, reduced load on the steering system, and consequently, lower energy consumption.

The triple-band GPS antenna provides high-resolution positioning data to the MAD Sensor XD, which then forwards it to the MADBrain. This data is critical for ultra-fine true wind calculations, an advanced feature derived from offshore racing and the America's Cup.

Yes, the MADINTEC triple-band GPS antenna, like the other components of the MADBrain system, is manufactured in France.

The antenna is designed for high-resolution data transmission. This capability is essential for accurate true wind calculation and advanced boat attitude analysis by the MADBrain system, ensuring optimal performance.

This antenna is designed to be connected specifically to the MAD Sensor XD. It is an essential component of the MADINTEC ecosystem, optimized to work with the MADBrain autopilot.

No, the MADINTEC triple-band GPS antenna is sold separately from the MAD Sensor XD. The MAD Sensor XD is a distinct component required for integrating this antenna into the MADBrain system.

This antenna is designed for direct connection to the MAD Sensor XD. The MADBrain system, to which the MAD Sensor XD is connected, is compatible with the NMEA 2000 network, allowing integration with other marine equipment via this interface. The antenna itself does not connect directly to NMEA 2000.

Yes, the MADBrain system can also use generic GPS sensors from other brands, such as the B&G ZG100 or the Garmin 24XD, via an NMEA 2000 connection. However, the MADINTEC antenna is optimized for a direct connection to the MAD Sensor XD to ensure maximum synergy and performance within the MADINTEC ecosystem.

No, this antenna is specifically designed to be connected to the MAD Sensor XD, which is an integral part of the MADBrain autopilot system from MADINTEC. It is not intended for standalone use or with autopilots from other brands without the MAD Sensor XD.

The antenna is supplied without cable or connector. You will need to purchase a suitable cable and connectors to connect it to the MAD Sensor XD. The type of cable and connector will depend on the specifications of the MAD Sensor XD.
