Batteries Can Work Like a GPS : New Studies Reveal the secret behind


Global Positioning System (GPS) is the key technology used today for tracking location of every thing that is connected by a satellite. This is helpful in getting the location through the globe but of we are in a city then using this method in not so handy as the apps which requires GPS permission are risky to use and may not tell the accurate position. A new method of location the people with the help of a mobile app Powerspy which will be soon available in play store will help you in locating without the use of GPS
A new research lead in the Standford University reveales that the position of a person can be tracked by using an android device without using the GPS or any other tracking method, the secret lies just in the batteries of the mobile and it does not require any special permission from the user to track down the locations there are more than 175 android apps which receives battery information and angry birds is one of them . It is just a simple method that the mobile uses more battery power to connect to a signal tower when it is far from it, that is the rate of power consumption is directly proportion to the distance from the tower and the hinderences like building or trees. And an algorithm plots the graph of the data which can be used to track the location via a mobile. The accuracy level may vary upto 100-150 meters which is still less than that of a traditional android GPS system.
