New Auto Navigation Technology To Be Launched

Navigation systems give drivers the chance to spend less time on driving by helping them know which roads to take so as to avoid traffic jams especially during rush hours. And another auto navigation innovation is nearing its launch in the auto market.

From Dash Navigation, Inc. whose website can be found at www.dash.net, the new piece of navigation technology for vehicles gives drivers an edge. You see, the new product made just for drivers would be mounted and installed in vehicles’ dashboards. Through the new feature, the drivers would be given timely and up to date information on the road and traffic conditions. Relevant information on local happenings is also given out with this new product from Dash Navigation. And if you are wondering when this one would be publicly presented, you would have to wait until the 26th of September for it.

John Doerr is one of the partners of Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers which is one of the investors of this Dash Navigation project. Doerr proclaims, “If you’re a professional who spends hours a day on the road, a commuter stuck in traffic, or a soccer mom juggling schedules, Dash transforms your driving day. Dash provides the best traffic and local information for your everyday life.”

You see, statistics state that because of traffic congestion on streets and roads, Americans had to spend some 3.7 billion hours on the road. This was back in the year 2003. So just imagine the statistics today with tons of people owning vehicles and using them for various purposes from picking up the kids at school, to purchasing their needed used Acura car parts, to going to the office, to visiting their relatives in another city.

But you see, if the Dash innovation is already installed in your vehicle, those wasted hours could be used on more important matters like work productivity and time with your family or friends. What the product does is that it provides drivers with information that are constantly updated regarding the traffic conditions. Aside from that, any alternate roads to the destination are also given out. That way, you can further explore your possibilities of driving to your destination in the shortest amount of time possible.
