CARiN Navigation System
NAVIGATION COMPUTER
GLOSSARY
The Navigation Computer compares the data
on the CD with the signals coming from the
sensors and from the GPS receiver then
calculates the exact position of the car. Also
the navigation computer takes care of route
planning and guidance.
CD-ROM - COMPACT DISC
WITH CD-I FORMAT.
A CD which contains data readable only by
the Navigation System CD player. Digitised
road maps, city maps and a database of
facilities of special interest (for example
parking, hotels, restaurants, filling stations
etc.) are stored on the CD.
SDVC (SPEED DEPENDENT
VOLUME CONTROL)
For compensation of engine, wind and rolling
noise the voice volume is increased
dependent on the car speed. The Navigation
System controls volume of the voice. The
volume can be adjusted by selecting several
SDVC curves.
GPS (GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM)
A system for determining the exact position,
by receiving signals from several earth
orbiting satellites, of the vehicle. To calculate
a precise position at least four satellite
signals have to be received simultaneously.
The satellite icon is displayed in green as
long as sufficient GPS data is received.
GYRO

position of the car. The gyro is located in the
