Posted by Jerry under Industry News

The world renowned chipmaker Nvidia has produced the new Audi Q5’s navigation graphics system. This system is named MMI or the Multimedia Interface by Audi. With the help of the new navigation system, users can view the maps of urban centers in 3D format. All the landmark buildings are highlighted with a new texture. This feature helps drivers recognize places easily. The topographical maps are also described in 3D format, which helps users understand the pattern of the terrain ahead.

The navigator comes with a 7 inch screen. This device gives traffic updates and enables the user to escape from heavy traffic. The Nvidia powered device not only comes with amazing graphics but also features some great techniques. Nvidia graphics chips are usually reserved for computers or laptops, like the Sony Vaio VGN-AW11M/H, and this represents one of the few times the world’s leading graphics chip maker, Nvidia, has worked on a sat nav. This system has adapted the hard drive-based navigation system. The 10GB space reserved for music is a good choice as listening to music while driving is a popular culture today. The 10 GB space allows users to save their favorite songs. Audi also offers the speech-to-text facility. With the help of this, you can make calls to anybody in your phonebook just by uttering their name. On doing this, the car will make the call to the person mentioned and provides hands-free calling.

To make matters much easier, the Audi car company has added another feature namely the inclusion of joystick to its console dial. The joystick can be used to surf around the map as you drive. It is very comfortable to access, as compared to the keys found in other navigators. Go for a drive in the Audi to know what luxury feels like.
