Navman Jupiter 30 GPS To Support Indoor Navigation

cosa — Mon, 24 Apr 2006 05:00:16 +0000

As reporter by TGDaily, Navman has came up with a GPS device that is sensitive enough to pick signals in various locations (as low as -159 dBM), including canyons, parking garages and even indoors. Named Jupiter 30, this GPS module would surely stand up from the crowd since almost all navigation devices nowadays do not support indoor tracking. The Jupiter 30 itself can track up to 20 GPS satellites simultaneously (out of 24 total), a horizontal positioning within 9.5 feet, a velocities of up to 500 meters per second, and an acceleration of up to 5 g.

The Jupiter 30 GPS is about the size of a Compact Flash memory card, is only one-tenth of an inch thick and weighs four grams. According to the plan, the company will start the full-scale production of this module this month.
