technology guidesGPS III – Delivering Impressive GPS Navigation Benefits When GPS III is fully operational, improvements over the present satellite fleet will include three new signals designed for civilian use: L2C, L5, and L1C. For backwards compatibility for existing GPS devices the legacy civil signal (L1) will still be broadcast. GPS III satellite services which will provide more powerful signal strength and improved accuracy, reliability, integrity, and availability. Garmin nuLink! Garmin’s nuLink! is a wireless data connectivity platform for delivery of various real time information services for its GPS navigation products. The service utilizes AT&T’s 3G network for wireless connectivity just as the latest Amazon Kindles do. Unlike an FM receiver which is used by other nuvi to receive traffic data, the built-in wireless module is capable of transmitting data (your location and search queries) as well as receiving it. Using the wireless connectivity capability Garmin has packaged numerous location based and other services as nuLink! Atomic Clock on a Chip | Improving GPS Accuracy and Reliability Improvements which can be achieved by having a GPS receiver with an on-board atomic clock include; less satellites required for an accurate position determination, accelerated GPS satellite re-acquisition, improved vertical accuracy and improved jamming resistance. Your GPS Enabled iPhone Could Save Your LifeUsing an iPhone’s GPS capability (location awareness) to regularly log your location could save your life TMC/FM Traffic for GPS Navigators Traffic is an extra paid service which delivers to suitably equipped GPS navigators information about traffic conditions including heavy traffic, delays, accidents, road works, black spots and speed cameras. In the U.S. Traffic Message Channel (TMC/FM), MSN Direct and XM NavTraffic are three prominent traffic service providers. Service features and quality varies between the providers [...] CSR eGPS | Hybrid Positioning Technology CSRs eGPS is another hybrid positioning technology combining the best of integrated GPS and cellular measurements in order to expand the range of environments where accurate positioning is possible. The hybrid nature of the positioning technology also improves responsiveness and power consumption. Importantly eGPS does not depend on the upgrading of any existing [...] Microvision’s PicoHUD Microvision’s PicoHUD with laser powered projection is significantly smaller and brighter and has higher contrast than other HUD technologies available at the moment. The PicoHUD is a demonstration unit to showcase the capabilities of the PicoP display engine for potential use in HUD for automobiles, trucks and busses. The unit was demonstrated [...] GPS Head Up Displays (HUD) Set to Storm the Market Head up display (HUD) technology is set to be the next significant technology to be integrated into GPS automotive navigators. It will follow text-to-speech for announcing street names, speech recognition systems for control and Bluetooth for hands-free phone calls in improving driving safety. CSR’s CSR9000 – Integrated Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, GPS and FM Chip Solution for Mobile Devices Despite integrating Bluetooth, Bluetooth low energy, Wi-Fi (IEEE 802.11a/b/g/n), FM receive and transmit and GPS the CSR9000 still beats less endowed competitors coming in at a tiny 60mm2 module size. It’s news that will be ring sweet in the ears of handset an mobile device designers looking for the smallest form factor possible. [...] Speech Recognition GPS Navigation Research into speech recognition has been ongoing for over 25 years. In recent years this significant body of research has begun to pay off with more consumer computing and electronics hardware incorporating speech recognition command systems. A recent survey by VoiceBox, a leading speech recognition products supplier, revealed that there is a strong demand for speech-enabled features for personal navigation systems among consumers.
