Navigating the Future: A Look at Visual Positioning System vs Global Positioning System at the Global Tech Summit

VPS (Visual Positioning System) and GPS (Global Positioning System) are both systems used for navigation and location tracking. However, they have some key differences.

GPS is a satellite-based system developed by the US Department of Defense and is now widely used for navigation and location tracking worldwide. It uses a network of satellites to triangulate the location of a receiver on the ground.

VPS, on the other hand, is a hybrid system that combines GPS with other technologies such as computer vision and machine learning. It uses cameras, sensors, and algorithms to provide more accurate indoor navigation and positioning. VPS is particularly useful in environments where GPS signals are weak or unavailable, such as indoors or in urban canyons.

In conclusion, while GPS is widely used and provides reliable outdoor navigation, VPS is an emerging technology that provides more accurate indoor navigation and positioning.
