Sandia shows advanced wayfinding tech could finally become compact, fieldable. Don’t let the titanium metal walls or the sapphire windows fool you. It’s what’s on the inside of this small, curious device that could someday kick off a new era of navigation. For over a year, the avocado-sized vacuum c...

High-tech quantum sensors could guide vehicles without satellites, if they can handle the ride. When talking about quantum inertial sensors, words like “tough” or “rugged” are unlikely to be spoken. These remarkable scientific instruments can measure motion a thousand times more accurately than the ...

Researchers have developed an alternative positioning system that is more robust and accurate than GPS, especially in urban settings. An alternative positioning system that is more robust and accurate than GPS, especially in urban settings has been developed by researchers of Delft University of Tec...

A systematic global analysis of GPS time-series data from nearly 100 large earthquakes suggests the existence of a precursory phase of fault slip that occurs about two hours before seismic rupture. The analysis of Global Positioning System (GPS) time-series data from nearly 100 large earthquakes wor...

Innovative Technology Allows for Navigation in Areas Where GPS Can’t Reach In a reported global first, researchers from the University of Tokyo have used superfast, subatomic particles known as muons to wirelessly navigate underground. The team utilized ground stations that detect muons, coordinatin...

Researchers aim to leverage the quantum technique of weak value amplification to replace the gyroscopes in drones. Researchers at the University of Rochester are developing photonic chips that could replace the gyroscopes currently used in unmanned aerial vehicles or drones, enabling them to fly whe...

A new study involving University of Arizona researchers suggests change is happening faster than trees can adapt. The finding offers “a word of caution for ecologists” studying climate change. As the world heats up and the climate shifts, life will migrate, adapt, or go extinct. For deca...

A groundbreaking study using sub-daily GPS has improved our understanding of early afterslip following earthquakes, offering a more accurate assessment of seismic hazards and enhancing emergency response and preparedness strategies. A groundbreaking study has revealed new insights into the Earth&#82...

Hey HN,<p>Over the past few months, we have been building a tool that uses live ADS-B data (messages broadcasted by airplanes) from the OpenSky Network to track GPS spoofing in real time. We see that over 1,000 flights daily are impacted, with planes jumping to spoofed locations. We also track GPS j...

Optical atomic clocks have the potential to improve timekeeping and GPS accuracy by a factor of 1,000, enhancing the precision of mobile phones, computers, and navigation systems. However, their large size and complexity have prevented widespread use outside of research labs. Now, scientists from Pu...

NASA and the Italian Space Agency made history by successfully tracking GNSS signals on the Moon, proving that Earth-based navigation can extend into deep space. This technology could revolutionize lunar exploration, allowing spacecraft to determine their position autonomously. LuGRE Makes History w...
