Genius Virtual Cable Sat-nav

[midzt]

Was wondering if anyone else has seen this before.



Virtual Cable™ Car Navigation - Safe, Simple and Intuitive

Seems to be a very very good idea and the videos seem to show it could be implemented pretty well, much better than glancing at a small screen and sometimes confusing maps.

Saw this on Endget back when it was firt announced. Looks interesting.

Although I like all the other information you get on satnav screens.

Is it just me or does anyone else try and beat the ETA figure there sat nav gives them?

[Funkstar]

You mean you need to try?

Saw this back when it was on engadget as well.

It looks a really good system. I have had problems before where Because my missus has lost the mount to the sat nav she holds it and doesnt tell me which turn it is Im supposed to be taking. THis would negate the need to rely on my missus and also if its built directly into the car ya wouldnt have to worry about charging wires dangling

Not just turn on the voice directions?

I don't recommend that, turning her directions off again is nearly impossible.

seems its based on a laser. I cant imagine how they could render an image in the screen with a laser yet prevent it from passing through..
Would be funny if every car had a laser shining out the window...
