TomTom GO launched

TomTom has completely redesigned its portable navigation device (PND) to introduce the new TomTom Go. An interactive map enables drivers to easily access the travel information they need via a high-resolution, capacitive touch- screen. The 3D maps bring buildings and landmarks to life to give drivers a view of precisely what is going on around them, as well as what lies ahead.

1692 TomTom has completely redesigned its portable navigation device (PND) to introduce the new TomTom Go.

An interactive map enables drivers to easily access the travel information they need via a high-resolution, capacitive touch- screen. The 3D maps bring buildings and landmarks to life to give drivers a view of precisely what is going on around them, as well as what lies ahead.

The new TomTom Go series comes with lifetime TomTom traffic: traffic information that pinpoints exactly where delays start and end. Additional features include route bar, providing essential travel information at a glance; quick search; my places or favourite locations; lifetime maps; and speed camera alerts.

Drivers can connect to TomTom traffic via Smartphone Connected or Always Connected.

    Vector is introducing a new testing interface for its CANoe software. Dubbed the VN4610, the new interface allows developers to easily create a simulation environment for testing V2V and V2X applications. “As companies continue to develop connected vehicles, they are going to need a device to bring in DSRC signals,” said Jim Hutter, marketing manager, Vector. The VN4610 is able to receive and transmit data using DSRC and two CAN channels. This creates a seamless link to the CANoe software and provides

    The German AKTIV project is researching several cooperative driving applications for use in work zones. PTV's Michael Ortgiese details progress. The steep increases in traffic volumes predicted back in the early 1990s have unfortunately been proven to be more than accurate. In Germany, the AKTIV project continues to look into cooperative technologies' potential to reduce the impact of those increased traffic volumes and keep traffic moving despite limitations in infrastructure capacity.
