Uniden takes wide-screen navigation to the next dimension

Announcement posted by Write Away Communication 22 Sep 2009

New top-of-the-line TRAX 5000 features expansive 5" high-definition LCD screen and next-generation 3D mapping technology


Getting from A to B is set to become even easier with the launch of two new Uniden TRAX GPS car navigation systems.

Featuring an expansive 5 inchflat panel non-reflective LCD screen - among the largest available - the new top-of-the-line TRAX 5000 offers next generation 3D mapping technology to provide drivers with the most realistic navigation experience currently on the market.

With 360 Degree 3D Landmark technology enabling famous locations such as the Melbourne Cricket Ground, Queen Victoria Building and Sky Tower to be viewed in 3D from any angle, the TRAX 5000 takes it a step further incorporating new 360 degree 3D City Maps technology which makes it possible to virtually view entire city blocks and identify key areas of interest. New 3D Terrain Software, which shows road elevations and land contours including overpasses and bridges, is another key feature.

Designed for drivers who demand exceptionally user-friendly high-quality car navigation systems, the new TRAX 5000 also utilises Advanced Lane Guidance and Signpost Information which visually indicates the most appropriate lane to use – a particularly useful feature in Australia’s busy metropolises where early lane changes can significantly reduce stress and danger.

Other key features of the new TRAX 5000 and TRAX 4300 include:

- Spoken Street Names (TTS)

- Latest Where-is Australian and New Zealand mapping

- POI Route Planning – up to 750,000 pre-programmed Points of Interest (POI) including restaurants, accommodation and more

- Where Am I route planning

- Fixed speed and red light camera warnings

- Over speed alert

- Day and night mode that switches automatically

- Predictive keyboard text – to reduce destination search time

- Global mapping available

The Uniden TRAX 5000 and TRAX 4300 will be available from October from leading electrical retailers and department stores.
