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 technology revolution in urban traffic control?
    Urban traffic control is a well-defined and practised art. Nevertheless, there are technologies here and on the horizon with the potential to revolutionise how we do things. By Gavin Jackman and Andrew Kirkham, TRL, and Jason Barnes. Distributed monitoring and control of urban traffic networks and flows is nothing new. PC-based Urban Traffic Control (UTC) is now well established and operating in many locations around the world. However, it is worth considering the effects of the huge growth in the use of sm

    Tolling systems - interoperability is key
    Is US tolling as fragmented and divided as some would have you believe? And are the technology suppliers so very entrenched? ITS International spoke to the market's leading suppliers. A few years back, the prevalent view was that the North American tolling market was characterised by fragmented, proprietary solutions, each existing in splendid isolation. The reality is that a combination of pragmatism and good old market forces have seen some concerted moves made towards interoperability in many areas.

    Garmin announces portable GPS and Glonass receiver
    Garmin International has announced Glo, a portable GPS and Glonass that provides significant new benefits. When using both GPS and Glonass satellites, the time it takes for the receiver to “lock on” to a position is (on average) approximately 20 per cent faster than using GPS alone. Moreover, when using both GPS and Glonass, the receiver has access to 24 more satellites than using GPS alone. Garmin says this is particularly helpful for users who need reliable satellite navigation in challenging environments
