Product Overview: |
Imagine yourself
driving in an unfamiliar city, lost and
late for an appointment. You could stop
to ask a stranger for directions or
struggle with a large map. Or, you could
use iGuidance, a vehicle navigation
system that uses Global Positioning
System (GPS) satellites to find your
current position on a detailed map. A few
clicks or taps to enter a destination and
iGuidance not only finds the best route,
it also provides verbal turn-by-turn
directions.
Netropa has developed a
full-featured, flexible and customizable
software solution for mobile GPS
navigation. We've combined the
capabilities of Global Positioning System
and the power and portability of handheld
devices to offer consumers all the
features of a car dashboard mounted GPS
navigation at an affordable price. Using
a Pocket PC handheld device, drivers can
now have a bright color map display,
accurate maps and voice notification for
every turn movements.
iGuidance provides an affordable full
featured, in-car GPS navigation solution.
Keeping you on safe and on track are our
highest priorities.

The iGuidance
includes accurate moving map navigation
display, dynamic route calculation, voice
output engine, and consumer friendly
interface. Our software solution is based
on a modular approach so we can customize
it to your hardware or software design.
Different map databases can easily be
used for iGuidance. Our routing engine
can be tailored to fit your software. We
can also input different language
recordings for the voice notification for
international distribution. We use only
the latest maps that have been updated
with turn restrictions and one way
movements.
Enter
the destination by street address or
cross street and iGuidance will figure
out the best route to drive from your
current location to your destination. The
current location is displayed on an
accurate moving map to so you know where
you are at all times. Getting to your
destination is just one consideration:
safety is another. Our software will give
the driver verbal directions to the
destination so the driver can keep their
eyes on the road and the hands on the
wheel.

What is GPS?
Global Positioning System (GPS) uses a
constellation of satellites to locate a
position anywhere on the surface of the
earth. iGuidance uses this system to
locate and display the driver on an
accurate street map. Sophisticated
software calculates the best route to
take to reach the destination, while a
verbal prompts gives the driver turn by
turn direction.
The
satellites are always on and require no
fixed or recurring fees. Using the GPS
satellites only requires a GPS hardware
receiver and iGuidance.
