	Automotive navigation system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		An automotive navigation system is a satellite navigation system designed for use in automobiles.
		This analog system used an accelerometer to judge location, as the GPS system was not yet generally available.
		Some navigation devices (map software) also store the location of known speed traps on its map database, and can alert the driver in much the same way as a radar detector as he approaches a speed trap.

	Guidance system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Systems that are intended to have a high degree of human interaction are usually referred to as a navigation system.
		An inertial guidance system consists of an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) combined with control mechanisms, allowing the path of a vehicle to be controlled according to the position determined by the inertial navigation system.
		An inertial navigation system (INS) provides the position, velocities and attitude of a vehicle by measuring the accelerations and rotations applied to the system's inertial frame.

	PC Today Article - Automotive Navigation Systems (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Automotive navigation systems are making the driving experience all over the world a little less stressful.
		In general, navigation systems compare GPS signals with maps that are stored either on a DVD or on a device’s hard drive to create a visual map of your best route and current location.
		Though those devices are based on the same technology as automotive navigation systems and are made by some of the same manufacturers, such as well-known Magellan and Garmin (www.garmin.com), in-car navigation systems can have features that are quite different.

		Examples of these electronic systems are collision avoidance radar, adaptive cruise control, tire pressure monitoring, navigation systems, hands-free cellular phones, and other wireless connectivity, and biometric access.
		There are many applications in automotive systems that require continuous power even when the car is parked.
		Even though the design of an automotive navigation system is complex and demands high performance from its analog DC-DC converters, there is no need to panic.

	Kivera Launches Bluetooth-Enabled Vehicle Navigation System
		Eliminating the need for bulky in-vehicle navigation units and costly dedicated wireless subscriptions, the Kivera system utilizes the end-user's existing wireless account, freeing automotive manufacturers from the drawbacks typically associated with in-vehicle navigation systems and giving mobile operators a new service offering from which to draw revenues.
		With the Kivera Bluetooth-enabled vehicle navigation system, auto manufacturers are able to deploy an advanced telematics solution, unencumbered by separate charges to the end user.
		The Kivera-powered vehicle navigation system then establishes a connection with the end-user's Bluetooth-enabled wireless device, contacting a Kivera Traffic Server and downloading the information requested, along with a map of the vehicle's general area, and traffic conditions specific to the vehicle's location.

	North American Automotive and Consumer GPS Navigation System Markets
		North America has been slower to adopt navigation systems than other parts of the world because the road networks are relatively well laid out and do not change names for many miles, thereby making navigation systems redundant.
		Incorporation of real-time information systems, advances in data transmissibility, and continuous innovation in GPS and associated technologies are expected to provide a launch pad for GPS products into automotive, marine, and outdoor recreation industries.
		Meanwhile, integrated infotainment systems that provide improved performances at low prices also result in enhanced value-price ratio of navigation systems, thereby increasing their uptake.

	eBay - Automotive GPS
		Automotive GPS uses satellite positioning to track your car's location and help you map the distance and directions to your destination.
		Automotive GPS navigation systems typically stand alone and don't require a PC or PDA.
		The system should be correct to within 5 meters or less--keeping in mind that this number may increase due to unavoidable factors like extreme weather, satellite repositioning, and even loud noise interference.

	Honda Odyssey GPS navigation system - CarSpace Automotive Forums
		GPS technology is still evolving and improving, and OEM navigation systems sold in new cars seem to carry a hefty premium.
		I know that Honda sells map updates for its navigation systems (which I gather are produced by Alpine Electronics), so presumably that aspect of the navigation system can be maintained into the future.
		If you want or need Navigation, the built in system is the best way to go, in my opinion.
