MCM Electronics has announced the launch of a new personal safety device, developed in collaboration with u-blox. LONEworkr, a people tracker and SOS device in a card holder format, is designed to track lone and isolated workers in order to locate them in the event of an emergency.

The EU-funded COREGAL project combines traditional positioning technology with reflected global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals to let land management professionals see through thick tree canopies and better understand what lies on the forest floor. Not only is Brazil a large country but much of it is covered by the dense Amazon rainforest. Trying to manage such a rugged and isolated area using traditional mapping, surveying and land m...

Mats Andersson, Senior Director Technology, Product Center Short Range Radio, and Simon Glassman, Head of Strategic Partnerships EMEA at u-blox, discuss how data is transforming industrial processes and look at the things that really matter to today’s connected industry.

STMicroelectronics is showcasing its latest products and technologies for the mobile, wearable and IoT applications in Hall N1 Booth E50 at Mobile World Congress Shanghai, 29thJune to 1st July, 2016.

u-blox has announced a firmware upgrade for its NEO-M8P high precision GNSS modules. The small, highly cost effective and very precise Real Time Kinematics (RTK) modules now support BeiDou. Complementing u-blox's existing support for GPS+GLONASS satellite navigation systems, this release introduces 8Hz RTK update rates for GPS, making the NEO-M8P suitable for applications with high user dynamics.

u-blox has announced a miniature UDR (Untethered Dead Reckoning) receiver which measures just 7x7mm, making it suited for small-sized vehicle trackers. The EVA-M8E provides untethered dead-reckoning performance without any electrical connection to the vehicle, using low cost inertial sensors and offers continuous positioning even before GNSS signals have been received.

Qualcomm has announced a connected car reference platform aimed at accelerating the adoption of advanced and complex connectivity into next-gen connected cars. Qualcomm Technologies developed a product designed to maintain pace with an ever-increasing set of automotive use cases facilitated by the latest advances in 4G LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth and V2X communications.

To expand its GNSS support, IZT has cooperated with TeleOrbit, the marketing & sales unit of TeleConsult Austria. To enable the generation of GNSS signals provided by the GIPSIE software from TeleOrbit to be integrated into the feature set of the IZT S1000 signal generator. The signal generator with its broad frequency range and the Virtual Signal Generator (VSG) channels enables the similar generation of various GNSS standards in one device ...

In a world first, the Public Regulated Service (PRS) of the European satellite network Galileo has been delivered via the 'cloud', paving the way for its automated use by the security and emergency services and critical national infrastructure (CNI) as the secure position and timing service of choice across Europe. Accessing PRS via the cloud overcomes a major problem for some potential PRS users due to the security protocols required when managi...

STMicroelectronics and Israel-based Autotalks, a V2X-chipset market pioneer and leader in the first wave of V2X deployments, have announced their fusion of GNSS technology and V2X ranging. The "V2X-Enhanced GNSS" ensures authenticated and secure vehicle localisation for extreme accuracy and reliability of positioning information, especially in urban canyons, tunnels, and parking structures, where accurate absolute and relative positioning-to othe...
