u-blox announces the launch ofZOE-M8G, an ultra-compact GNSS receiver module, especially designed for markets where small size, minimal weight and high location precision are essential.ZOE-M8G offers exceptionally high location accuracy by concurrently connecting to GPS, Galileo and either GLONASS or BeiDou. It also provides industry-leading -167 dBm navigation sensitivity. This makes the ultra-small ZOE-M8G perfect for wearable devices, UAVs and...

The SAM-M8Q Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver module from u-blox is now available at Alpha Micro. The module’s tiny 15.5mm land grid array (LGA) surface-mount package, containing an integrated wide-band antenna, makes it an ideal all-in-one module for developers with limited radio frequency (RF) and antenna design experience.

Different industries and application areas make use of standalone devices, devices that without the need for interactions are used to control local equipment.One example of this is a heating control system hidden in the basement of a building, quietly doing its work without any need for interaction with the device.

In terms of industrial IoT applications, ensuring signal integrity is essential for safety and operational reliability, yet even the most robust system has many attack surfaces that are vulnerable to would‑be hackers’ intent on compromising a system.

u-blox is collaborating with Vodafone and many different companies across the IoT ecosystem to demonstrate the power of Narrowband IoT (NB-IoT) technology at Mobile World Congress, the mobile industry’s premier event, held in Barcelona on 27 February – 2 March 2017.Each listed demo will run on a u-blox SARA-N2 NB-IoT module to illustrate various use cases of NB-IoT.

While the options for short‑range indoor wireless connectivity for industrial applications have traditionally been many and varied, that hasn’t been the case for cellular, especially at the ultra‑low power levels required for IoT.

u-blox forecasts for FY 2016 revenues of CHF 360 million, and EBIT between CHF 56 and 58 million. The revenue was lower than expected due to slow business progress in the Americas where customers delayed further investments into mobility solutions, and took a more prudent approach in launching new products. The EBIT prediction has been narrowed down and remains high as before, and in relative terms it has improved again, profiting from a favorabl...

Since 2013 u-blox has been helping to provide for projects including building new schools in the Lawra District.Launched in 2005, theSavannah Education Trustis a British charity providing disadvantaged rural communities in Northern Ghana with education programmes.

u-blox announced its components are at the core of two new cutting-edge GNSS products. The golf rangefinder wearables were launched by Voice Caddie, a leading international brand of rangefinders and trackers based in South Korea.The first product, the T3 Hybrid Golf GPS Watch, uses the compact u-blox UBX-G7020-KT professional-grade GNSS chip, which links with GPS/QZSS or GLONASS satellite systems.

u-blox announces its association with the Fleetlights Initiative from UK’s Direct Line Insurance. The prototype service aims to provide ”on-demand” light from a fleet of drones when and where it’s needed, to individuals and emergency services, at the press of a button.u-blox’s M8 concurrent reception of up to 3 GNSS (GPS, Galileo, GLONASS, Beidou) modules were used in the development of the drone technology.
