3DVU’s technology offers the most realistic car navigation system ever with 3D imagery and terrain elevation.
Raanana, Israel (PRWEB) November 22, 2005 -- 3DVU announced today that its 3rd generation VisualMap™ technology presenting satellite imagery and terrain elevation, will fuel Daewoo Precision Industries’ in-car navigation system. This system is targeted for the preinstalled OEM and dealer option markets in Korea. For the first time, drivers will able to benefit from a truly realistic navigation aid.
Isaac Levanon, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of 3DVU stated, "Daewoo’s decision signifies the new and inevitable trend of presenting more realistic and intuitive navigation aids for users. This is part of the continuous wave of solutions to be offered by major car-navigation entities with 3DVU’s technology”.
3DVU has overcome major technical barriers to enhance the drivers’ navigation experience by providing smooth continuous movements with 3D perspective over images with terrain elevation in such limited computing devices such as in-car navigation systems. The technology is software based and platform independent thus can be ported and integrated into any car navigation system and Personal Navigation Device (PND).
“For the first time, navigating users will view realistic imagery with the elevation of mountains and valleys on their mobile devices” added Levanon.
