Oct 24, 2008 gps navigation

Following the lead of Dash Express, a few other names are attempting at the two way connected GPS navigation systems. One of them is deCarta.

deCarta doesn’t actually have a device, but they want to provide their two way connected platform to GPS navigation system makers.

The Company’s first major customer will be deploying personal navigation devices utilizing deCarta’s CNAV technology in late October in time to meet the 2008 holiday season.

We’re not sure who their first customer is but here are the features that they provide:

• Real-time and predictive traffic-aware routing / More efficient routes
• Corridor search/ More relevant and practical results for searching along a route
• Cheapest gas nearby and fast Internet search/ Increased utility and performance satisfaction
• Destination downloads/ Information sent to device from user’s home PC
• Weather

Well there’s nothing here that Dash can’t do.

Here are a few screen shots:
