Traveling GPS System for Walking & Driving in Europe

Most GPS devices are designed for either driving or walking purposes. However, certain models, such as the Garmin Nuvi 500 series, are capable of handling both types of navigation. In addition, some of these devices come with support for traveling in Europe. When using these GPS devices in Europe, you typically need to manually switch between walking and driving mode.

   Step 1 

Connect your GPS device to a power cable or make sure it has a working and fully charged battery.

Step 2

Press the power button to turn the GPS device on so it can begin searching for network signals. On most devices, the signal display uses the bar icons.

Step 3

Step 4

Tap on the mode icon, usually located at the top of the screen, and then choose the type of navigation mode you want to use, such as driving or walking.

Shoes with GPS by Dominic Wilcox

Designer Dominic Wilcox created a utilitarian pair of kicks with LED lights on the toecaps, that illuminate to show you which way to walk. First, the wearer uploads their location via USB. The lights on the left shoe indicate the correct direction, and the lights on the right shoe are a progress bar that show you how far you have left to go.

A piece of software has been created in which the wearer plots their desired destination on a map - this location is uploaded via USB to the shoe. through the use of two microcontrollers called arduinos, a simple click of the heels, where the GPS is embedded, activates the system, with a red tag containing the unit's antenna positioned upwards.

Powered by battery, similar to that of mobile phones, data from the left shoe communicates wirelessly with the right one which shows progress via a bar of LED lights on the footwear's toe cap. a green LED is illuminated once one has arrived at their final destination. the left shoe indicates the correct direction in which to walk by way of LEDs placed in a circle.

Motorola Droid Razr Maxx

Motorola Droid Razr Maxx.
While it seems the current smartphone race is all about Samsung and Apple, when it comes to GPS that’s not necessarily the case. Samsung has been hit with reports of GPS issues affecting the Galaxy (although apparently there are updates to fix this) so it may not be the ideal choice for users looking for the best GPS solution.

• Sharp map detail – With its Super AMOLED display, the Droid offers sharp, crystal-clear display and high map definition. This is perfect for seeing map detail clearly, particularly at high zoom levels or viewing satellite imagery.
• Long-lasting battery – Like the HTC Titan, the Droid has one of the best batteries on the market right now. This is a valuable feature; nothing worse for a traveler than their GPS device running out of battery life partway to your destination.
• Rugged construction – Built partly with Kevlar, the Droid is literally bullet-proof, ideal for outdoor use and situations where GPS is being used in demanding environments.

HTC Titan: good selection of premium map and navigation apps

Running Windows Mobile, the HTC Titan has a good reputation for fast GPS performance and a good selection of premium map and navigation apps.

• Large screen – One of the largest on the market at 4.7” the HTC Titan makes it easier to browse, pan, and zoom maps with its massive touch screen.
• Powerful processor – Running a grunty 1.5GHz second-gen Qualcomm Snapdragon chip the HTC Titan can process map detail without much effort and good response times.
• Good battery life – Using your GPS will impact on battery life so it’s good to know the HTC Titan’s 1600mAh battery offers longer lasting performance.

Maximizing GPS Trackers’ Battery Longevity

Without question one of the major features that people look at when selecting GPS tracking devices is battery life. For tracking systems that don’t have a hardwired connection, battery life is very important because when the battery charge is fully depleted, the tracking capability usually comes to a grinding halt. Just like any cell phone GPS devices need power communicate and receive digital information. This entry will focus on factors that impact a tracker’s battery life.

Position Refresh Rate
Perhaps the most influential factor that determines a tracking device’s battery longevity is the position update rate (or “refresh rate.”) This refers to the frequency at which the real time tracking device sends out its whereabouts to the web. Some trackers, such as the LandAirSea SilverCloud, update every few seconds. These systems tend to not to have phenomenal battery life. (Luckily, most GPS tracking solutions, including the SilverCloud, have several power options, including large capacity battery packs that usually come with matching weather proof cases). Other trackers, such as the Quantum Q-SX1 Satellite Tracker, can be set to update very infrequently. This is what allows the Q-SX1 GPS system to last for up to several years.

Amount of Time that a GPS Tracker is in Motion
Battery life is also a function of the amount of time that a real time GPS tracking device is in motion. This is because most units incorporate accelerometers, motion sensors or some other power management feature that takes into account a unit’s motion status. When motion is detected, many GPS trackers wake up and send out position updates at set intervals. When idle for some period of time, most GPS tracking systems go into a low-power standby state. By taking the two factors outlined above into account, users of GPS tracking technology can get the most out of their battery-powered tracking devices.
