Car GPS Systems
There’s an old stereotype to the effect that male drivers won’t ask for directions when they’re lost. If the cost of car GPS systems continues to drop, they may never have to. Unlike human beings, GPS receivers always know where they are, night or day, in any weather, no matter how remote the location.
Car GPS systems are based on ingenious technology developed for the military and made available for civilian use in the 1980s. GPS receivers get signals from three or more of the two dozen satellites originally deployed by the US Department of Defense to help guide military fleets. These signals, along with error correction signals from ground-based GPS stations, allow the receiver to calculate exactly where on earth it is located.
Today, consumers can purchase affordable car GSP systems that include handheld GPS receivers for use both while driving and while hiking, boating, or traveling. Since the receiver itself calculates position in terms of longitude and latitude, car GPS systems are made more useful by means of a database that includes street-level maps. The database allows the GPS system to give the driver turn-by-turn guidance from one location to another.
Even better, voice-activated car GPS systems are available that can be installed in any vehicle. Not only do such devices have a high “cool factor,” but they also provide a great deal of comfort and peace of mind. The convenience of being able to ask your car for directions (and have it answer you) is not to be underestimated.
