Global positioning systems (GPS) have become ubiquitous in everything from phones to cars. But researchers have come up with a new method that uses quantum mechanics to keep track of directions instead of the satellite network. “There is always a chance that GPS is unavailable,” Sandia National Laboratories scientist Peter Schwindt told Lifewire in an email interview. “Perhaps you are in an area where you cannot receive GPS, such as in an urban canyon or a tunnel....
