INS and GPS Technology Trends
On
About the Talk
This presentation focuses on accuracy and other technology trends for inertial sensors, Global Positioning Systems (GPS), and integrated Inertial Navigation System (INS)/GPS systems, including considerations of interference, that will lead to better than 1-m accuracy navigation systems of the future. For inertial sensors, trend-setting sensor technologies will be described. A vision of the inertial sensor instrument field and inertial systems for the future is given. Planned accuracy improvements for GPS are described. The trend toward deeply integrated INS/GPS is described, and the synergistic benefits are explored. Some examples of the effects of interference are described, and expected technology trends to improve system robustness are presented.

SharePoint is the fastest growing product in Microsoft’s history. Come learn what all the fuss is about. SharePoint provides a unique architecture that lets groups collaborate on projects, documents, and numerous other tasks. It also provides enterprise search functionality, enterprise content management tools, forms-driven processes, and a complete application development framework for supporting knowledge workers. We will provide an overview of the SharePoint architectures, demonstrate the core features, and explore some of the creative ways that organizations are using the tools.
