Advantages: RF-eye Increases Reliability and Safety
“the wake-up call here is the lack of resilience on the part of the navigation system. As…interference becomes increasingly common, systems need to be able to recognize when they are being disrupted, and to recover after the disruption has occurred.” --Guy Buesnel
GPS location blockers are cheap and easily available.
Spoofing GPS locations (providing an inaccurate location) only requires a stronger signal than the satellite signal.
One bad actor can easily disrupt location reliability and cause havoc.
RF-eye Provides Resilience
RF-eye location data is accurate and highly redundant
- Using Write Once Read Many (WORM) memory, it is impossible to rewrite the data on raised pavement markers
- Bad actors would have to replace every marker with spoofed location data, as well as spoof GPS signals. Unlikely and very difficult to do
RF-eye greatly improves the resilience of location data for navigation.
