technology guidesMagellan Offers AAA Tourbook, Roadside Assistance Access and AAA Member Discounts Magellan’s partnership with AAA (American Automobile Association) allows Magellan to offer AAA Tourbook information and Roadside Assistance access to customers purchasing GPS navigation devices with the AAA Tourbook included. Optical Touch for GPS Navigation Devices Promises Significant Improvements Testing one of the new touch screen Sony Readers for a review it occurred that the new and very responsive optical touch screen would make and excellent touch screen technology for GPS navigation devices. The Sony Reader product line for 2010 uses Neonode´s optical touch screen technology that has been customized for Sony. Neonode calls [...] Acquisition vs Tracking Sensitivity of GPS Receivers Two sensitivity values can be specified for GPS receivers – acquisition sensitivity and signal tracking sensitivity. Acquisition sensitivity is the lowest power level at which a receiver is able to achieve a position fix which requires a lock on four GPS satellites to achieve. GPS 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. 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 infrastructure. Comparative [...] 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 earlier this year [...] 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. Pioneer and Microvision are working towards having a automotive HUD product on the market in 2013.
