How does the GPS work?

bless their little souls

That 33 minutes is a countdown and you win if you beat it.

it’s because it tracks other card locations and can tell when there’s traffic

Wait until he finds out gps satellites have to calculate the speed at which they time travel.

First time they agree on smt

The most impressive thing is that those two actually lived that long.

Great examples of what life is like when you don't pay attention in high school, don't go to college and still resist learning.

DUDE, we trick a freaking rock to think for us just by zapping with a electricity

Pokemon Go used everyone to map out the world. If they needed more data on an area they just threw some rare's in that area to get people to go help map out that area.

For the traffic aspect, what Google does for Google Maps is it takes around 100 phones on the same road and measures their speed. If they are fast, the road is green. If they are slow, the road is red. Also I'm pretty sure Google uses automated systems for the labels on everything.

I take it that modern GPS is 15 or so generations of improving. Honestly the base math is the coolest part.

Damn, wait until they find out about wifi 😂

1. Satellites track your location, plus other tools in the phone to estimate your location while driving. 2. Traffic data is pooled mostly from other people using the same gps app or apps using the same data broker. 3. Trends are developed over time to best calculate routes, traffic, and timing. 4. Map data is mostly open source meaning there are many contributors from all around the world to fill in street names, businesses, events, etc. 5. Routes are calculated with weighted pathing algorithms like A* (a-star), and fine tuned based on trends, like popular routes and traffic.

Pokémon go actually had a really big hand in it, people walking EVERYWHERE and collect the data to completely revamp and update map systems

Hedy Lamarr is the goat. she figured the original tech that would evolve into radar, gps, and wifi

Because there are other people with gps in the traffic before you got there updating their data in real time

This is a conversation to be had before YouTube was even created.

Rare footage of cam and Peyton agreeing on something

Its a counting down so it pause when you are stuck in one place 😂😂😂

It knew that because EVERY car on the road with GPS and all those GPS enabled smart phones within are being tracked. It saw all those cars at that traffic jam moving very slow, and applied the same to your journey. Incredible tech, but also very big brother is always watching everyone.
