Swift navigation’s precise positioning service now integrated directly into ruggear devices, bringing lane-level accuracy to industrial and mission-critical operations

RugGear, a leading provider of rugged mobile devices, and Swift Navigation, a global leader in precise positioning technology, have partnered to embed high-accuracy positioning directly into RugGear’s enterprise and mission-critical devices.

The collaboration integrates Swift Navigation’s Skylark™ Precise Positioning Service into RugGear devices powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen Platform, enabling lane-level accuracy out-of-the-box without external receivers or configuration. This ensures reliable location data for applications across logistics, construction, rail, and public safety.

The RG940, a rugged 10.1-inch tablet, is the first device to feature Skylark integration. High-precision capabilities enable optimized route planning, verified proof-of-service, GIS asset mapping, geo-fencing, and safer rail operations.

“Rugged mobility demands two things: reliability in the harshest conditions and the precision required for critical tasks,” said Holger Ippach, EVP of Product and Marketing at Swift Navigation. “By integrating Skylark directly onto RugGear’s Snapdragon-based devices, we are transforming the capabilities of mobile enterprise solutions. Professionals can now have lane-level accurate data in their hands, instantly improving safety, efficiency, and compliance.”

“Our customers operate where device failure or location error is simply not an option,” said Jeff Liu, Vice President of RugGear. “The integration of Swift Navigation’s Skylark into our rugged portfolio, starting with the RG940, moves high-accuracy GNSS from a specialty tool to a standard, native capability, unlocking next-generation enterprise applications for our industrial and public safety users.”
