With the gradual consolidation of wireless standards and the rapid improvement of smart technology in the automotive sector, the pace of development in connected cars is also increasing.In particular, the evolution of electric cars has taken a back seat and has given way to other major trends in green automotive development, including low carbon energy sources, lightweight body materials, intelligent functions, intelligent traffic management syst...

Provider of positioning and wireless communication technologies, u-blox, has announced the SARA-R5 series of LTE-M and NB-IoT modules for low power wide area (LPWA) IoT applications, its most advanced, secure and highly integrated cellular product.

As data plays an increasingly important role in vehicles, wireless networking becomes as important to automobiles as tire pressure.Real-time navigation solutions require an Internet connection to use live traffic information to find the best route to a destination.In an accident, the emergency services (eCall) need important information about the location of the vehicle, its direction of travel and the number of passengers.Similarly, for telemati...

u-blox is announcing that Siemens has integrated the u‑blox ZED-F9Khigh precision dead reckoning module into its Toyota Prius V2X (vehicle-to-everything) test fleet. Siemens carried out live demonstrations of the technology at the ITS European Congress 2019in Eindhoven, the Netherlands.

Lighting systems take on a new role as a connectivity backbone for IoT applications in smart cities, smart buildings and smart business.In the last decade, energy-efficient LEDs have replaced more and more incandescent lamps in the world.Recently, connectivity and lighting have resulted in networked lighting systems that can be remotely monitored and controlled.Now, this smart lighting infrastructure is beginning to make its connectivity availabl...

Most of us use Bluetooth on a daily basis in some form, usually to connect things like our phones, smartwatches, headsets, mice, and keyboards.In fact, Bluetooth is now so widespread that theSpecial Interest Group (SIG), which monitors the standards, has forecast an incredible 5.2 billion deliveries of Bluetooth devices by 2022. With all the buzz about Bluetooth in the consumer segment, the fact that it is incredibly well-suited for smart, indust...

Global provider of positioning and wireless communication technologies, u-blox, has announced the u blox ZED-F9K high precision multi-band GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) module with built-in inertial sensors. The module combines the latest generation of GNSS receiver technology, signal processing algorithms, and correction services.

C-ITS or co-operative Intelligent Transport Systems have become an important strategic pillar of the EU's modernisation strategy for its transport sector to achieve the goal of zero fatalities by 2050.At the heart of C-ITS is V2X (Vehicle-to-Everything) communication, which enables vehicles and transport infrastructure to talk to each other via high-reliability and low-latency wireless communication technologies.

In celebration of International Women in Engineering Day 2019, the Women’s Engineering Society (WES) has announced the winners of the Top 50 Women in Engineering: Current and Former Apprentices (WE50). Now in its fourth year, the WE50 continues to showcase the extensive female talent across the sector, this year focusing on women currently serving as apprentices or those who have previously undertaken an apprenticeship.

Smart metres play a key role in the digital transformation of cities.Without smart metres, it is difficult to envisage many of the smart utilities and services that will ensure the attractiveness of tomorrow's cities: improved resource efficiency, increased capacity for renewable energy sources, better management of public utilities, and higher overall urban resilience.
