New technology to compete on the GPS in smartphones!

All applications navigation and positioning so far depend on the global navigation system, GPS, satellite-based spread on the land, but the new technology will enter the field of GPS and you will see the light soon.

New technology came from Finland where researchers from the University of Oulu invented a system that allows select locations across the Earth's magnetic field.

The researchers called who founded their own company under the name "IndoorAtlas", the technical name internal GPS or IPS short for Indoor Positioning System.

The technology will be used initially in mapping the interior places that do not reach her ​​coverage of satellites used in GPS navigation system, will be done using the magnetic sensor is located in the most smart phones.

The new Finnish company will exit the application allows devices that integrates with magnetic sensor using new GPS system, especially as the technology came out of the stage experience in waiting for financial support for the deployment.

The researchers emphasized that the new system has great accuracy in positioning and exploiting disorders magnetic field to produce a digital representation of a place located where the system user.
