Car navigation systems are not a novelty, rather there are more and more cars equipped with GPS (Global Positioning System) navigators. The new Travelpilot RNS 149 is the first Blaupunkt car radio with built-in navigation system. All components have been miniaturised in a device incorporating AM/FM RDS radio, CD audio player and navigator with a large graphic display. The Travelpilot can adjust automatically and the tachometer signal provides it with the distance covered; this measurement is constantly compared with the road network stored on the navigation CD, keeping constantly in touch with the GPS satellite network.
