Tiny GPS timing receiver

Trimble has introduced the Resolution-SMT GPS receiver, a new embedded GPS receiver for timing applications to enable system integrators to add precise GPS to provide location, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and synchronisation to many products or systems where cost or size had previously been a limitation. The device is a complete, ready-to-go timing receiver in a 19x19x2.5mm shielded module. A Starter Kit from Trimble provides everything a designer needs to begin adding state-of-the-art GPS timing capab

1985 Trimble has introduced the Resolution-SMT GPS receiver, a new embedded GPS receiver for timing applications to enable system integrators to add precise GPS to provide location, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) and synchronisation to many products or systems where cost or size had previously been a limitation. The device is a complete, ready-to-go timing receiver in a 19x19x2.5mm shielded module. A Starter Kit from Trimble provides everything a designer needs to begin adding state-of-the-art GPS timing capability into their application.

    New constellation will add accuracy and security to GNSS services
    With Galileo’s early services scheduled to start next year, Fiammetta Diani is enthusiastic about the opportunities the EU’s GNSS system will offer. Next year will be a very exciting one for Galileo, the EU’s fledgling satellite constellation; additional satellites are scheduled for launch and, as European Commission Vice President Tajani recently announced, early operational services will be starting towards the end of 2014. So it really is ‘all systems go’ as Fiammetta Diani, market development officer in

    Urban utility
    Steve Lane, Commercial Director at Triteq, talks about the successful deployment of ZigBee in Barcelona where a low-cost wireless metropolitan network for location and citizen services was established. The project, he says, demonstrates ZigBee's effectiveness as an urban communications system solution ZigBee is based on the IEEE radio frequency standard 802.15.4 - 2006 for Wireless Personal Area Networks (WPAN), which provides a license-free radio frequency for a flexible, robust private wireless network.

    Single GPS device synchronises all controllers
    Canadian company STI-Tassimco has developed the STS-22 to enable traffic authorities to easily synchronise all its traffic controllers. Featuring a GPS satellite time synchronisation module and a user friendly display, the device fits standard a NEMA or 170 detection chassis or can be mounted in its own one-position chassis, and updates the controller’s clock on a regular basis. The STS-22 will compensate for the clock’s temperature drifting and other variations observed in the field, keeping it accurat

    Debating the future development of ANPR
    What future is there for automatic number plate recognition? Will it be supplanted by electronic vehicle identification, or will continuing development maintain the technology's relevance? In recent years, digitisation and IP-based communication networks have allowed Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) to achieve ever-greater utility and a commensurate increase in deployments. But where does the technology go next - indeed, does it have a future in the face of the increasing use of, for instance, Dedi
