True Track Positioning

True Track Positioning takes into account your track position, unlocks your racing line by reconstructing tracks, factors in your Apex point on turns, and where you started your turn in and track out. The True Track Positioning technology in the Garmin Catalyst works by combining several advanced features:

1. Multi-GNSS Positioning: It uses a 10 Hz multi-GNSS receiver, which includes GPS, GLONASS, and Galileo satellites, to provide highly accurate positioning data.

2. Built-in Sensors: The device incorporates accelerometers and gyroscopes to measure the car's movements and orientation in real-time.

3. Image Processing: The Catalyst uses its high-definition Remote Cam to capture video footage of your laps. This footage is then analyzed to determine the exact position of the car on the track.

   • The Remote Cam's purpose is to record detailed session data, so video feed may end when off the track or in a wreck.

4. Data Fusion: By integrating data from the GNSS receiver, sensors, and video analysis, the Catalyst can create a precise and detailed map of your racing line.

This combination allows the Catalyst to provide real-time feedback on your driving performance, helping you to identify areas for improvement and optimize your racing lines.

Additionally, the Catalyst includes the True Optimal Lap feature, which shows your best achievable time based on the lines you actually drove and can repeat. This combination of technologies provides real-time feedback and coaching, making it a powerful tool for any racing enthusiast.
