What is GPS? - Satellite Navigation

The video tutorial explains the widespread use of GPS technology, which relies on 24 satellites in fixed orbits around the Earth. It describes how GPS devices calculate location by measuring the time it takes for signals to travel from satellites to the receiver, using the speed of light. The process of triangulation with multiple satellites is used to determine exact locations. GPS has diverse applications, including transportation, disaster response, military operations, and everyday tasks like finding nearby cafes.
