March 5, 2025 With 24/7 health and fitness tracking1 and more, our smartwatches give cyclists valuable insights to support their time on and off the bike. If you already own an Edge® cycling computer, you know how valuable the Garmin performance data can be. But if you aren’t wearing a Garmin smartwatch, you’re missing out on important off-the-bike training and recovery data. Your Edge is your bike’s best friend. But to really take your cycling […]

AgEagle Aerial Systems has introduced version 2.1.0 of its eBee VISION application software, designed to significantly enhance UAV capabilities. The update expands the system’s functionality, introducing circular and grid mapping features. These new mapping capabilities allow users to generate 2D or 3D maps using external post-processing software for more comprehensive geospatial data. eBee VISION 2.1.0 can continue missions in GNSS-denied environments and allows manual deactivation of GNSS to prevent jamming or spoofing. It implements the […]

March 3, 2025 Overwhelmed at the thought of figuring out your next workout? Let Garmin do the work for you with workout options available right on your compatible smartwatch. Even the most dedicated athlete will inevitably get stuck in a rut when trying to choose their next workout. And let’s be honest — we’ve all skipped one simply because we weren’t sure what to actually do. But if you’ve got a Garmin smartwatch on your […]

The new receivers integrate multi-constellation and quad-band signal processing on a single chip, achieving centimeter-level accuracy for various applications. The Teseo VI family includes the STA8600A and STA8610A models, featuring dual independent Arm Cortex-M7 processing cores. These receivers are designed for automotive applications such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving, as well as industrial uses including asset tracking, mobile robots […]

Photo: MF3d/E+/Getty Images Photo: MF3d/E+/Getty Images When we discuss the security of GNSS/PNT systems, we nearly always focus on interference — i.e., meaconing, intrusion, jamming or spoofing. However, GNSS/PNT systems are embedded in systems of systems that also offer many other opportunities for cyberattacks. What should we do about it? Ellen Hall “The key is platform architecture, specifically ensuring robust spatial and temporal partitioning between safety-critical and non-safety-critical functions. Safety-critical functions, such as navigation and […]

February 27, 2025 This year saw a shuffle in some of the top activities for inReach SOS message triggers, indicating people are opting to get outdoors and use their inReach devices in diverse ways. We also saw an increase in the reasons for triggering an SOS message, such as natural disasters. Here’s the 2024 breakdown of inReach SOS data.Since 2011, inReach satellite technology1 has helped individuals stay in touch globally, send and receive messages outside of […]

The agreement, facilitated through the Space Technology Advanced Research — Fast-tracking Innovative Software and Hardware (STAR-FISH) program, increases Xona’s total contracted commitments to more […]

Taoglas has released a new family of active, multi-band GNSS antennas. Levity Series’ AHP24510 (L1/L2/L-Band) and AHP54510 (L1/L5/L-Band) directional patch antennas are designed for GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and BeiDou satellite constellations. These antennas offer improved performance through triangulation across multiple satellites, offering faster and more accurate signal acquisition and lock, specifically in urban environments. The L-Band capability allows compatibility with high-precision GNSS correction services, potentially achieving positioning accuracy better than 200 cm. The multi-band antennas […]

February 24, 2025 Whether you’re hiking a mountain in the dark, looking for a lost cat toy under the couch or making a frantic run to the bathroom in the middle of the night, a little extra light can be helpful. That’s why we love Garmin smartwatches with built-in LED flashlights. It’s the feature you never knew you needed — until you did. And this isn’t just the watch face lighting up. The flashlights on […]

NATO has selected SandboxAQ as one of approximately 70 companies to participate in the 2025 Defense Innovation Accelerator for the North Atlantic (DIANA) cohort. The selection process involved more than 2,600 submissions from 32 NATO countries. DIANA, established by NATO in 2023, aims to address complex societal challenges by bringing together innovative companies developing dual-use technologies for both commercial and defense applications. SandboxAQ will join the cohort’s Sensing & Surveillance group, focusing on the development […]
