SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwired - Oct 25, 2016) - Navdy today announced it is now shipping the world's first Augmented Driving device that leverages augmented reality (AR) technology to project information directly in the driver's line of sight, for an all new driving experience. Navdy's breakthrough user interface projects a transparent image on the road ahead, incorporates Hand Gestures to accept calls with the wave of your hand, a specially engineered Dial, and advanced software that lets you control your phone hands-free. With maps, calls, messages, notifications, music, and car information projected directly in front of you, you'll never again miss a turn or the information you need while driving. For the first time, drivers can Look Forward© while Staying Connected©, and enjoy seamless integration of their phone into the driving experience. Check out the video here.
"The way we interact with our cars hasn't changed much in decades, and phones were never designed to be used while driving. Navdy creates and defines an entirely new Augmented Driving category enabling drivers to interact with their phones and cars in a much more immersive, natural, and intuitive way," said Navdy CEO, Doug Simpson. "With Navdy, we've developed multiple technologies and an entirely new user interface specifically designed to enhance the driving experience. Navdy fundamentally changes how we interact with useful information while driving."
Navdy incorporates popular Head-Up Display (HUD) technology, primarily offered as a pricey upgrade package in luxury cars, with a groundbreaking UI, and specially developed software, delivering a far richer driving experience at an accessible price. And since Navdy is portable, consumers can enjoy the Navdy experience in whatever car they currently drive.
