Authors Abstract
Content
Bosch-Blaupunkt's EVA System is an electronic “Traffic Pilot”, which directs a driver from point “A”, to point “B”, by visual LCD Readout, and verbally, through voice-synthesized directions. The system is completely self-contained within the vehicle, enabling an unlimited number of simultaneous users. EVA can make instantaneous route corrections if the driver misses a directed turn, and re-calculate the optimum route from the point the error was made to the destination. By using a digitized map, stored on a CD disc, and pulse transmitters, the system provides accurate directions by use of the street address of the destination, from any location plotted on the digitized map memory to any other point plotted on the map, quickly, easily and with pin-point accuracy.
