A proposed five-satellite Cosmic Positioning System could measure cosmic distances directly and help address discrepancies in the Hubble constant through solar system–scale triangulation.

Scientists have demonstrated the fastest distance measurement so far. The researchers demonstrated on-the-fly sampling of a gun bullet profile with micrometer accuracy. The experiment relied on a ...

Dialog Semiconductor plc has released a new Wireless Ranging (WiRa) Software Development Kit (SDK) that adds highly accurate and reliable distance measurement capabilities to its DA1469x family of BLE ...

How two unrelated Nobel prize-winning advances were combined. How the phononic-based measurement scheme was devised. Details of the arrangement used in the lab-bench test to validate the idea. It’s ...
