C A S E 1 3 Sony Corporation: Car Navigation Systems 31 I n April 1996‚ Masao Morita‚ president of the Sony Personal and Mobile Communication Company‚ a division of the Sony Corporation‚ pondered how to recover Sony’s initial leadership in car navigation systems in Japan. As the first company to launch a reasonably priced (around $2‚000) after-market model in 1993‚ Sony could claim to have created the world’s largest car navigation systems market in Japan. Since the late 1980s‚ Sony led

Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) has developed its applications across various industries worldwide. Some applications are simple‚ such as determining a position‚ whereas others are complex blends of GNSS with communications and other technologies. Over the past few years‚ the rapid growth in GNSS commercial applications has been observed by the firms building navigation satellites and equipments. As per our research‚ the GNSS market is expected to flourish with new technological applications

Task 1: Geocaching In adventure books and movies‚ the hero sometimes has to follow a map to find a buried treasure. Today‚ a new sort of adventure sport has become popular in which people use technology to “find” treasures. Geocaching involves global positioning satellites‚ maps‚ and participants’ sense of adventure to locate specific geographic spots. These could be situated in a local area and tracked down in “real time” or located anywhere on Earth and identified virtually. As you know‚ every

GPS AND TRIANGULATION GPS calculation works on the principle of the receiver (example the handheld GPS receiver on car or mobile) calculating the distance of that receiver from a set of known points. 1) The receiver needs to receive a straight line signal (also called line of sight) from the known point without reflection. The best things that can do that are satellites overhead. 2) To enable that‚ the US department of defence has setup 24 low earth orbit (LEO) satellites. They are called the

present day ballistic missiles are all guided using the global positioning system or GPS.GPS uses satellites as instruments for sending signals to the missile during flight and to guide it to the target. SATRACK is a system that was developed to provide an evaluation methodology for the guidance system of the ballistic missiles. This was developed as a comprehensive test and evaluation program to validate the integrated weapons system design for nuclear powered submarines launched ballistic

GPS and GIS are two pieces used in technology by geographers. GPS stands for Global Position System. A GPS finds the precise location of something of someplace on earth. In the US there are three parts of a GPS. The first part of GPS is the satellites. There are multiple orbiting satellites over the earth placed by the US military. The second part of GPS is the tracking stations. There are tracking stations that control and monitor satellites. The third part of GPS is a receiver. A receiver locates
