Becker reveals latest must have high tech sat-navs: The Traffic Assist 7977…
Earlier on, we reported about NDrives, the latest in technology in the world of sat-navs that will soon in the future help guide us through the motorway and confusing streets of inner city areas using real maps and not just 2D/3D imaging.
Today we’ve got more news, Becker, the company which brought the Traffic Assist 7827 during the CES 2008 are now introducing the latest Traffic Assist 7977, which seems to be already available in some parts of Europe (haven’t seen it yet here in the UK though). This GPS I think has some functions that no other GPS firm has yet been able to offer efficiently, the 7977 will have a 4.3-inch touch screen, bluetooth handsfree functionality and compatibility for USB drives for audio and pictures. But wait, here’s the best bit, live traffic updates (not sure yet how this will actually work), reality view which lets you know when you are coming near a junction and also lane assistance, so it will tell you whether you are in the right lane in order to reach the destination efficiently. If everyone had one of these you would really need to learn how to drive then, neither would there be so many reckless car accidents on round abouts!

I thought more systems had traffic updates but that it was just a very expensive service?
The indication of which lane you should be in could help avoid a lot of panic when I am driving in a city I don’t know, that’s is a great idea. That is not so well supported in my TomTom.
