Global positioning system or GPS has been a key feature of most mobile phones and cars nowadays. This technological innovation has bought convenience to daily life and is continuously being developed to provide even better user convenience in the coming years.
GPS mainly bases on satellite systems that provide positioning, navigation, and timing data to users by sending impulses to a receiver. Initially referred to as NAVSTAR, this was originally designed for military use but has been modified to be made available for civilian use.
The rise of this was so fast that aside from being integrated into mobile phones, it has reached the vehicle field as well. As of present, a GPS tracker for car is considered one of the essential car accessories you can get aside from the usuals like tyre inflators and car jacks.
Any ride with GPS becomes easier since it helps you navigate through unfamiliar roads, find your location easily, and catch up with friends on the road for group travels in multiple cars.
GPS navigation for car can either be pre-installed on new cars or purchased as an accessory. The GPS tracking process is done by combining satellites with interactive onboard maps, allowing you to plot routes in advance to a specific destination.
Over the years, GPS for cars has gradually evolved to include other functions. Some models now receive real-time traffic information and automatically suggest a new route to enable drivers to get to their destinations hassle-free.
Aside from this, most rides with GPS are also synced with voice and visual instruction systems that send notifications in case a driver misses a turn. There are even models that function as a GPS speedometer, meaning it provides car speed information as well aside from location data.
This type of navigation is location-focused. Simply set your destination, follow the instructions, and arrive feeling relaxed. If possible, opt for an in-car navigation system with voice prompts, safety camera warnings, and lane guidance so you can concentrate 100% on the road.
This type of tracker combines other functions such as a dash camera to your navigation system. This way, you get accurate directions and a recording of what's happening both at the front and back of your car.
The size and clarity of your screen matter. Bigger is generally more ideal as long as it does not obstruct your view as it allows you to see the directions better. Choose something with vivid colours and always opt for a glare-free screen to be able to see clearly even on a sunny day. If you're after ample-sized, quality screens, check out our Garmin GPS range at Outbax.
For instance, the Garmin RV 890 Navigator boasts an impressive 8" HD edge-to-edge touchscreen display complete with pre-loaded street maps and a custom RV routing function. Whether it's everyday travel or a leisure road trip on your RV, this will definitely come in handy!
A GPS navigator loaded with a variety of maps with different levels of detail is always good to have. Determine what information you want to have in your maps before purchasing yours. Do you want to see landmarks? Is parking availability a must-have for you? Make sure to also go for models that provide live traffic data to avoid delays on the road.
Internet connectivity is essential. Get a GPS navigator with built-in WiFi so you can take advantage of automatic navigation updates without the need for a computer.
Our car GPS for sale at Outbax also offers this feature, such as the Garmin RV 775 MT-S GPS Navigator. For under $1,000, you get integrated WiFi, voice-activated navigation, and Bluetooth compatibility!
GPS does not need the internet to perform its basic function. It's a self-contained system that already comes with pre-loaded maps inside. GPS signals also work independently from the Internet which means it continues to operate even with your Internet data switched off. You can just use the offline maps for directions especially since routes do not change often, anyway.
In fact, there are some benefits of using GPS without the Internet. For one, you can save internet costs when travelling as having Internet in your car is not always a cost-effective option.
Also, it helps reduce your internet dependency which can come in handy if you're travelling to rural places where signal coverage might be limited.
