Navigating With A Gps System

Getting bored with the hectic city life style

, then, go out driving and explore the areas that you have never before visited on a holiday or on a weekend. Are you afraid that you will get lost? There is help on the way. A companion, who is present with you 24x7x365, is available to you. It is not a guide dog or a human friend.

Hmm... curious to know who is this true companion? No... No... I am not talking about a human or a guide dog. It is a technological marvel, a device that uses GPS (global positioning System) to receive a signal and tell you your exact position on a map. The device is called as a GPS receiver.

GPS is one of the versatile technologies used for various purposes ranging from civilian to military. You can navigate your way on the roads using this system and also the military can launch a precise strike using this marvelous system. So, am I interesting you in buying a system? Then, check out one of the Cobra gps systems. They are fabulous. A misconception is put about by the competitors of Cobra systems, that the GPS units are not good. But, it is not true as the GPS handheld cannot work efficiently, if the GPS system is not good.

Let me tell you about one of the interesting applications of a GPS system that I have come across. It is really fascinating and is a great invention. Imagine if your call is stolen and the car sends an SMS to you with the GPS coordinates of the location, where the car is currently present. Would that not be great? You can inform the police and put the thieves behind bars. You are getting your doubts about how a car can send an SMS to you. Yes, it can with the help of an embedded SIM card and a GPS receiver (for location coordinates).

The owner can also trigger the car's embedded security system to send an SMS to him / her on need basis. Wonderful security feature isn't it? It is all possible only because of GPS.
