SYSTEM OVERVIEW. We attached several sensors and two processing platforms to the quadrotor helicopter used in our work. A microcontroller sensor board reads the sensor values from the IMU, digital ...

To evaluate system accuracy on a real wood harvester, a surveyor’s office was instructed to measure the vehicle’s position at seven distinct locations. At each position, the sensor input data was ...

Arccos said the new Gen3+ sensors mean more than 98 percent of all shots will be recorded, and that the system behind it, which is fueled by artificial intelligence, only gets more aware with each ...

Since the U.S. developed the Global Positioning System, or GPS, in the 1970s, the nation has become increasingly reliant on this satellite-based method of determining position, time and velocity.

Today, GPS navigation is standard for smartphones, ... Despite the incredibly accurate sensor, the system cannot function if the phone has no knowledge of the building.

A team of Spanish researchers has developed a way to vastly improve in-car GPS navigation—and all it requires is some cheap, extra sensors. It's one of those why-didn't-they-think-of-that ...

A system of super-accurate GPS sensors being tested in several earthquake and tsunami-prone areas may change all that. Instead of passing tense minutes and hours waiting for deadly waves to make ...

Shutterstock It is easy to forget that GPS technology hasn’t really been around that long. Many of us remember printing off directions from systems like MapQuest and having to try to follow them while ...

Earthworks X200 excavator machine guidance system is Hemisphere GPS’ first construction solution. With the company’s exclusive Crescent Vector GPS sensor and other precision sensors, the X200 guides ...

Game Golf Pro, the next generation of Game Golf’s round-tracking club sensor based game analysis tool, is better according to CEO John McGuire, because it’s smarter, more technologically ...

MIT scientists have developed an acoustic system that acts like an underwater GPS, yet doesn't need batteries to operate. The system is instead powered by modulated audio signals reflected from ...
