Steering clear of
traffic tie-ups just got easier
When it comes to avoiding traffic jams and bottlenecks, good decisions
start with good information. And that's where Garmin's GTM 10 traffic
receiver can make a quantum difference in any driver's quality of life.
The GTM 10 is a small FM-band traffic receiver that connects inbetween
your car stereo and antenna to provide real-time Traffic Message Channel
(TMC) data to compatible Garmin GPS navigation products—which then
depict and identify problem areas on their moving-map displays.
Available in a fast-growing number of cities throughout North America
and Europe, this TMC data gives prompt, accurate notification of
accidents, road construction, police, or emergency action, etc.—so
drivers can visually monitor traffic flow and, if necessary, select an
alternate route.
The TMC traffic alerting system works on an FM sideband signal which
utilizes RDS (Radio Data Service) technology. Digitized and coded
real-time traffic broadcasts are received via a "silent" FM data
channel—which means that drivers can still listen to music or news
programming on their car radios, without interference from the incoming
FM traffic data transmissions. In most areas, depending on the service
provider, TMC traffic broadcasts are continuous—there's no waiting for
scheduled traffic news updates or random alerts. With the GTM 10, you
see traffic developments in real-time, as they happen, so you can make
the right decision sooner. The system will alert you when a traffic
problem is on your route and propose an alternate route to avoid the
incident.
The Garmin GTM 10. If getting stuck in traffic is not your idea of fun,
this is the technology for you. |
