# HYFIX

> HYFIX (HYFIX Spatial Intelligence) is a Santa Clara semiconductor startup building an American-made autonomous systems chip that fuses high-precision GNSS positioning, inertial sensing, flight control, encrypted communications and onboard AI into a single system-on-chip. Emerging from the GEODNET decentralized positioning network, HYFIX aims to give U.S. drone and robotics makers a domestic alternative to Chinese-dominated supply chains, with centimeter-accurate location that resists jamming and spoofing.

- **Founded:** 2022
- **Headquarters:** Santa Clara, California, United States
- **Founders:** Mike Horton (Co-Founder & CEO), Udan Ercan (Co-Founder (GNSS / precision positioning))
- **Team size:** ~15 employees
- **Products:** H1 Autonomous Systems Chip, H1P Positioning, Navigation & Open-Compute Module, MobileCM (Mobile Centimeter), EmbedCM (Embedded Centimeter), RTK Rover
- **Notable:** Raised a $15M seed round led by Craft Ventures (April 2026), Launched the H1P autonomous navigation module at AUVSI XPONENTIAL 2026 (Booth 34005), Achieved dual-antenna GNSS heading on a 0.2m baseline small enough for sub-250g drones

## Products & services

- **H1 Autonomous Systems Chip** — A vertically integrated system-on-chip that fuses high-precision GNSS positioning, inertial sensors, flight control, encrypted communications and onboard AI inference. Runs NuttX OS with the PX4 flight stack natively, works with raw satellite measurements (code, Doppler, carrier phase), and supports dual-antenna heading.
- **H1P Positioning, Navigation & Open-Compute Module** — A compact 17x22mm surface-mount module that packages the H1 chip into an industry-standard form factor compatible with existing GNSS module footprints. Adds onboard compute and I/O, supports all major GNSS constellations plus Xona's Pulsar LEO service. Samples and eval kits announced May 2026.
- **MobileCM (Mobile Centimeter)** — Turn-key GNSS receiver hardware family delivering centimeter-accurate positioning, including plug-and-play GEODNET base stations.
- **EmbedCM (Embedded Centimeter)** — Embedded RTK and dead-reckoning engine for low-cost GNSS chipsets (Synaptics, ST and others).
- **RTK Rover** — IoT and mobile-robotics rovers built on Quectel's LC29H dual-band module, launched on Crowd Supply - USB version and Raspberry Pi 4B / Ethernet version with data logging.

## Achievements

- Raised a $15M seed round led by Craft Ventures (April 2026)
- Launched the H1P autonomous navigation module at AUVSI XPONENTIAL 2026 (Booth 34005)
- Achieved dual-antenna GNSS heading on a 0.2m baseline small enough for sub-250g drones
