Tracking device has been very widely applied in several areas

Image
GPS is a Global Positioning System based on satellite technology. The fundamental technique of GPS is to measure the ranges between the receiver and a few simultaneously observed satellites. The positions of the satellites are forecasted and broadcasted along with the GPS signal to the user. Through several known positions (of the satellites) and the measured distances between the receiver and the satellites, the position of the receiver can be determined. The position change, which can be also determined, is then the velocity of the receiver. The most important applications of the GPS are positioning and navigating. Through the developments of a few decades,  GPS tracker  is now even known by school children. GPS has been very widely applied in several areas, such as air, sea and land navigation, low earth orbit (LEO) satellite orbit determination, static and kinematic positioning, flight-state monitoring, as well as surveying, etc.  electronic tracking devices ...

GPS tracker-based positioning solutions

Image
Enhanced client-assisted GPS positioning The enhanced client-assisted GPS positioning technique is a hybrid between autonomous GPS and server-assisted GPS. This type of solution is similar to the serverassisted GPS, with the location server providing the mobile unit with a list of visible satellites on demand. However, in an enhanced client-assisted system, the mobile unit does the complete PVT calculation rather than sending pseudorange information back to the location server. This technique essentially requires the same processing power and capabilities as an autonomous  GPS solution , in addition to a communication link between the mobile unit and the location server. However, the amount of time required to complete the PVT calculation is much less than with an autonomous GPS solution, because of the satellite view information provided by the location server, and fewer exchanges with the location server are required than with a server-assisted solution. Dead reckoning ...

3G GPS tracker for mobile devices

Image
With dynamic growth and acceptance of mobile devices, many innovative business applications are beginning to emerge. GPS phone and tracing seems to be one of the popular applications which many organisations have initiated, often facilitated by location based services provided by mobile network operators. However, there are many issues associated with the provisioning of this application with current technologies and business models. Small and Medium size Enterprises (SMEs) that make up a significant segment of businesses worldwide do not yet seem able to benefit widely from these services. In this chapter, we initially review current technologies/ applications and the issues associated with them, drawing from research and the experiences of a long term ongoing action research project with SMEs in the trade sector. Subsequently, we explore the opportunities offered by 3G services/business applications to SMEs, and provide a broad critical outlook on future opportunities for SMEs to be...

Recent innovations in GPS Tracking Device technology

Image
Through the developments of a few decades, GPS is now even known by school children. GPS tracker has been very widely applied in several areas, such as air, sea and land navigation, low earth orbit (LEO) satellite orbit determination, static and kinematic positioning, flight-state monitoring, as well as surveying, etc. GPS has become a necessity for daily life, industry, research and education. GPS receivers are designed with many built-in features but only a few are essential for wilderness navigation. Any feature that requires the receiver to stay switched on for prolonged periods should be used sparingly as conserving battery power is an important consideration, especially in cold weather. Under certain conditions, built-in or optional features can enhance the performance of a GPS receiver. Recent innovations in GPS technology have introduced ways to enhance precision, availability, and reliability in advanced receivers. These innovations address mitigation of multipath errors, r...

Integration of Car tracking GPS with mapping program Assistance

GPS Visualizer is a slick, easy-to-use Web-based mapping program, written by Adam Schneider, that allows you to upload GPS waypoints and track files to a Web site and then overlay them on topographic and other types maps. GPS Visualizer relies on online sources that provide free topographic maps, aerial photos, satellite images, and street maps. Unlike many other sites that are limited to making maps of the United States, GPS Visualizer can create maps of Canada, Europe, and other places in the world. GPS Visualizer has a number of powerful options for creating customized maps. In this section, I describe how to make a map using some of the Web site’s basic features. After you master the general procedure, you can experiment on your own with some of the other advanced options. Map aiding is most useful when map matching has determined that the vehicle has just turned a corner, in which case its position is in close proximity to the intersection of two streets of a known location in t...

JC900 3G Android GPS Navigation Rearview Mirror DVR

The DVR is rapidly evolving far beyond its original, and quite limited, role as a time-shifting device. The DVR will become a more multifaceted product, one that can conveniently access and store both broadcast and Internet Web media. Very soon, endusers will gather, sort, and access videos, photos, music, podcasts, and RSS feeds.1 And, with the intelligence available in the next generation of DVRs, connections between various content choices will be recognizable, such that meaningful recommendations as to related content and choices amongst all enduser media will become the enduser’s favorite feature—a trusted friend, of sorts. Best of all, it will all be readily accessible anywhere within the home and, when the enduser is out and about, via the Net. JC900, As a star model for Jimi Electronic, JC600 ( rear view mirror with gps ) has enjoyed a high popularity since its launch. To cater for different niches in a variety of different national markets, Jimi today announces its brother ...

How GPS Works —— The secrets of Magnetic GPS

Image
It’s fun to uncover something that you aren’t supposed to know about — many software applications and movies on DVD contain what are known as “easter eggs.” However, imagine finding something that you aren’t supposed to find that turns out to be useful and informative. In this article, we are going to hunt for GPS easter eggs, delving into the secrets that lie behind the standard menus on your GPS unit to find useful features and diagnostic screens that can give you information about your system and troubleshoot problems that you might have. There’s a lot of information to find — technical information, diagnostic information, and more. Let’s begin our tour of the secrets of Magnetic GPS . How GPS Works The basic principle behind GPS is straightforward: The GPS receiver picks up a signal from three or more of the satellites and then uses this information to calculate the distance to the satellites. This information is, in turn, used to determine a location on the globe where th...
