What's the next step of the GPS development
At present, GPS navigations are generally configured with digital TV, audio and video playback and games and entertainment functions. Of course, they just come as additional functions. At least for the moment, the driving cab is the main battle field of wholesale GPS.You may get to know the sales terms of "Red Ocean Strategy" and "Blue Ocean Strategy". Nowadays, there"s increasing homogeneity of products on the wholesale electronics market. And the price war is becoming fiercer and fiercer. The "Red Ocean" pattern has taken shape. The cheap price has been achieved with GPS. In this case, are there any new products that can open up a new "Blue ocean" field for the GPS industry?
Each one has its area of expertise. It goes the same with GPS. The car navigation should be the concentration of GPS. It"s true that the development of processor, memory and screen applied in GPS products is still in the early stage. But great changes can take place in the electronics field in just one or two years.
It can even make everything in the field look very different. Just take the Apple for example, iPhone has fully changed the mobile phone industry. The hardware solutions used in GPS products are nothing short of MP4 and MID products. So it"s natural for GPS to be a border-crosser.
GPS is traditionally used in car cab. As it begins to integrate with MP4 and MID, there are more possibilities for it to enter into the hall, office and dining room. A full time portable digital device is developed.
Border-crossing HD mp4-1080P full HD video decoding and HDMI output
The resolution of screen has improved from 480*272 to 800*480. GPS and MP4 come in the same size, weight and mold design. There"s not much difference in price. The 1080P full HD models such as Aocos T510 has been developed in the advantageous conditions.

A major attraction of the navigation is that it perfectly combines the GPS with 1080P HD decoding playback and HDMI TV-OUT. It"s a milestone in the development of technology to some extent. As once the mobile TV comes with GPS, the technology has changed the people"s life.
