Courtesy of u-blox By Craig S. Mullins The number of connected things is projected to grow exorbitantly before the end of the decade. Depending on the source, projections for the number of connected objects by 2020 could be as low as 26 billion or as high as 50 billion. But even the low end of that…
Courtesy of u-blox By Patrick Mannion Technology Analyst and Writer By using ISO 26262 as agreed‑upon set of rules, engineers and sales can get along better, and customers get safer automobiles. “Shoot the engineer and ship the product,” is a fun maxim that has stood the test of time. Engineers and developers like to get…
Courtesy of u-blox LTE. Most of us know it as the technology that lets us watch our videos on our phone, but the truth is, there’s much more to it than that. While high speed smartphone connectivity is how most of us know LTE today, it isn’t just about higher speeds and video streaming. Here…

Courtesy of u-blox Who wouldn’t want a car that can move you and your family from Point A to Point B without ever sitting in traffic? How convenient would it be to book a taxi that rises above the city streets and flies you to your destination through the clouds? That’s exactly what Dubai’s Roads…
Courtesy of u-blox Smart metering is not the most obvious application for next‑generation cellular technology. Utility meters don’t need the high data speeds of up to 100Mbps that are designed for consumer mobile video streaming. The amounts of sent data are small, the speed of transmission is not critical and low power operation is desirable….
Courtesy of www.u-blox.com Increasingly dense urban environments, park houses and multi‑level interchanges pose a significant problem to navigation systems based on the reception of extremely weak satellite navigation signals. As ever more systems (e.g. car navigation, road pricing, fleet management, emergency services, etc.) depend on reliable, uninterrupted positioning and navigation, “3‑Dimensional Dead Reckoning” GNSS, the ability…
Courtesy of u-blox blog – By Patrick Mannion With automobiles generating gigabytes of data, FASTR has a plan to secure that data while ensuring user privacy, but it needs help. In a connected world, very few worthwhile things can happen in isolation, and this is particularly true of automotive security and privacy. That’s why the Future of…
Narrowband IoT (NB‑IoT) is a new way of communicating with the “things” in Internet of Things that was standardized by 3GPP in June 2016. The latest mobile broadband standard, NB-IoT is aimed at devices that need to communicate small amounts of data over long periods in hard-to-reach places. It connects devices through existing GSM and…
The u-blox NINA-W1 series of stand-alone Wi-Fi modules offers exceptional security features, making them particularly valuable in demanding applications that require secure wireless connectivity. NINA-W1’s secure Wi-Fi connectivity can: • connect video cameras to alarm centers, • gather information for improved healthcare monitoring, • increase flexibility through point-of-sale device mobility, • make industrial connected tools…
