World’s Greatest GPS

Audi and MIT have teamed up to create what appears to be the Mother of all GPS units and one of the most intriguing automotive gadgets yet.

AIDA – Affective, Intelligent Driving Agent – is the next generation of GPS. If you’re impressed with turn-by-turn instructional driving, this will blow you away. AIDA becomes your own personal driving manager by operating from a stored informational base. Your most common routes are learned, studied and even improved upon by knowing current road conditions, traffic patterns and accidents. An alternate route recommendation can appear even before you’re aware one is needed.

Improving the quality of driving is every manufacturer’s goal; this takes it to a whole new level.
