A new technique makes GPS accurate to an inch.

A new technique makes GPS accurate to an inch. It's a technique that augments the regular GPS data with on-board inertial measurements from a sensor. "Actually, that’s been tried before, but in the past it’s required large computers to combine the two data streams, rendering it ineffective for use in cars or mobile devices. Instead what the University of California team has done is create a set of new algorithms which, it claims, reduce the complexity of the calculation by several order of magnitude."

Jessica Meyer ... for posting this... I now love you. I cannot tell you how much you just made my day. Also, Happy Valentine's day... (the concepts are unrelated).
