July 02 2018 - 8:00AM
Telenav, Inc. (NASDAQ:TNAV), a leading provider of connected car
and location-based platform services, has announced its embedded
navigation solution is part of the Uconnect® system available
in the recently launched 2018 Jeep® Grand Commander, a new
entry in the Chinese mid-size SUV market. Telenav embedded
navigation is also included in the 2018 Jeep Grand Cherokee, which
had its China launch in August of last year and will be included in
Jeep Cherokee and Compass when they debut in China by year’s end.
The fully embedded Telenav navigation system provides a highly
dynamic, relevant, and useful navigation experience. Users will
gain access to a variety of new navigation features made possible
through Telenav's technologies. Key features include:
- Intelligent Onebox Search: Users will no
longer be required to enter street number, street name, city and
province into multiple fields. With the Onebox search feature,
drivers can simply enter addresses into a simplified search box,
which also provides smart auto-complete, Pinyin and handwriting
input, and auto-suggestion functionality for faster
searches.
- Multi-Touch Maps: Users can interact with
map data by using zoom, pan, pinch and swipe motions, mimicking the
familiar mobile interfaces that users are comfortable with.
- Fully Interactive, Moving 2D and 3D
Roadmaps: Users can see their current location and
nearby streets with accurate, moving maps viewable in 2D or 3D with
zoom in and out options.
- 3D City Models: With the updated user
interface, users can view 3D city models of buildings and major
landmarks, creating an improved user experience that’s ideal for
travel.
- Dynamic Junction View: Dynamic junction
view shows a photo-realistic picture of the junction or
intersection, so the driver can easily maneuver complex
junctions.
- Real-time traffic: allows for course
correction on the fly, getting drivers to their destinations more
quickly.
“Our expansion in China demonstrates continued positive momentum
for Telenav,” commented Hassan Wahla, co-president of the Telenav
Automotive Business Unit. “We are pleased to provide Jeep
drivers in China access to easy-to-use, localized, reliable, and
always-available navigation.”
“The Telenav embedded navigation solution with its various
enhancements are ideally suited to the challenging driving
environment in China,” said Roger C. Lanctot, director automotive
connected mobility for Strategy Analytics. “Our user
experience research has consistently shown Chinese consumers using
both mobile and aftermarket navigation devices to cope. Jeep
is seeking, with the Telenav/Uconnect offer, to provide a
mobile-like experience from the in-dash system.”
