High-Precision Location for Everything That Moves
A
2:21AaronGUEST
We like to say it's for everything that moves.
A
2:23AaronGUEST
And the high level construct is, if you think of GPS as this amazing thing that got us positioning capability, we do something similar, but with 100 times the level of accuracy.
A
2:36AaronGUEST
You say high precision,
D
2:37DanielHOST
yeah? Well, is there different sort of bands that you, I mean, we could have low precision and high precision, but ultra high precision, like, well, what are we talking about here? What would you classify as ultra high?
A
4:59AaronGUEST
It's the only thing that actually tells you where you are globally in a consistent way.
A
5:04AaronGUEST
And so we leverage all the existing satellite systems out there.
A
5:09AaronGUEST
So the US, you know, we have GPS, Europe, they have Galileo, there's the Russian system of GLONASS, and then the Chinese system of Beidou, and then even some regional systems that are out there.
A
5:19AaronGUEST
We use all of them.
Dexter: Resurrection - S2E1 - Risky Business - Final Cut - Pt 1 of 2
J
63:07JackHOST
That's funny.
J
63:07JackHOST
I'm thinking about going from season two of the original, Lila stealing his Garmin GPS out of his car, versus now we're just tracking people on our phones.
J
63:18JackHOST
Oh, and we did kind of run over this.
J
63:20JackHOST
When they're having their diner moment, Dexter throws out like, hey, you know, since you're going to be out there, and he's saying it as a concerned father, like, hey, you're going to be on the beat.
An interview with the engineer behind Shield AI's radical X-Bat vertical take-off and landing fighter jet
A
12:06Armor HarrisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
VBAT, which is like a group three class drone, has to land in totally denied environments.
A
12:12Armor HarrisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
So you don't get GPS.
A
12:14Armor HarrisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It has to land in crazy sea states because if you're fighting a war, You have to fly your mission, even if the weather is rough.
A
12:21Armor HarrisSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
It has to land in the frigid Arctic North.
How Red Kangaroos Endure the Outback Heat | Nature Documentary For Sleep
S
36:03speaker_3NARRATOR
That rule had overrated how much grazing a kangaroo needs compared with a sheep, and measuring the animal's actual energy use cut the kangaroo's share to roughly half of what the rule allowed.
S
36:16speaker_3NARRATOR
Later, free-living red kangaroos and sheep in an Australian rangeland were followed by GPS, while their energy use was tracked, and the kangaroos' field metabolism came to about 30% of the sheep's.
S
36:31speaker_3NARRATOR
Part of that came from behaviour, since in that country the kangaroos travelled shorter distances.
S
36:38speaker_3NARRATOR
The free-living figures matched earlier work inside an enclosure, which suggests the thrift belongs to the animals themselves.

38:23David KreutzkampHOST
What else are you doing beyond that? That's going to try and help and solve those, the situation.
D
38:28David KreutzkampHOST
GPS
H

everywhere.

The Science of Peak Performance: Mindset & Training | Sports 101
M
14:19Michael T. BrownHOST
That's right.
D
14:21Daniel LucasHOST
So about the technology of load management, how do high performance teams use GPS or accelerometers and biometric data to thread the needle between optimal training load and overload management? leading an injury
M
14:41Michael T. BrownHOST
oh you're on the cutting edge with the question there daniel a lot of talk about load management these days particularly in basketball where sports teams are looking at the health of their players and deciding how should we distribute minutes, playing time, rest, recovery.
M
15:03Michael T. BrownHOST
And I don't think anyone's found the perfect formula in partly because right.
Show 960.0: Cow Omelet Geocaches
S
3:10SandyHOST
First up, shareable activity and more in the news.
S
3:31SonnyHOST
First up in geocaching and GPS news, there have been a number of release notes from Geocaching HQ.
S
3:36SonnyHOST
So we're going to run through them and just to keep you informed.
S
3:39SandyHOST
So the first is about shareables.
20 MINS LATER
A
23:51Annie LoveGUEST
And mine was through my dad.
A
23:54Annie LoveGUEST
He is a forester, retired now, but still loves being out in the forest.
A
23:59Annie LoveGUEST
With his job, he was using GPS devices.
A
24:02Annie LoveGUEST
And so he heard about geocaching and decided to take that up as a hobby.
Louisiana's Darkest Secrets | Halloween Special Part 2
T
16:23Tim HendersonHOST
Yeah, they didn't have
S
16:24speaker_1HOST
GPS.
T
16:25Tim HendersonHOST
Well, and also people weren't videoing at the party.
T
16:29Tim HendersonHOST
Thank God.
309: Episode 309 | "Trick or Treating Comes with Rules in Our Town"+ 3 Other Scary Stories
M
85:34Mr. CreepsHOST
Did the power cord come loose? I checked ensuring the power cable for the unit's battery was plugged into the port on the control panel.
M
85:43Mr. CreepsHOST
It was a brand new GPS unit, and I had used it a few times already, so I knew that it wasn't defective.
M
85:51Mr. CreepsHOST
Granted, I could fly and navigate without it, but the Garmin made my time as a pilot so much easier.
M
85:58Mr. CreepsHOST
The thought of going blind was dreadful.
The Black Hole Detection Project That Just Got Defunded_ with Kelly Holley-Bockelmann
K
44:06Kelly Holley-BockelmannGUEST
I personally am excited about the gravitational wave aspects, but there's a lot of technology that can be used for the efforts for things like the Moon to Mars effort.
K
44:16Kelly Holley-BockelmannGUEST
So needing to know exactly where we are is GPS.
K
44:21Kelly Holley-BockelmannGUEST
And so, you know, LISA is really going to be developing that technology.
K
44:26Kelly Holley-BockelmannGUEST
The communication, laser communication, is going to be something that we'll need to have prepared.
K
44:32Kelly Holley-BockelmannGUEST
And so all of these technological pieces, which have nothing to do with gravitational waves, are being developed and will be really useful for things that are our nation's priorities.
N
44:44Neil deGrasse TysonHOST
Wait a minute.
N
44:45Neil deGrasse TysonHOST
Did you just imply that you are on the cusp of technology that will give travel through the solar system the coordinate equivalent of what GPS does on Earth's surface.
N
45:02Neil deGrasse TysonHOST
So it'll be a solar system positioning system, not a global positioning system.
