Whatever we think of the car, it is now a part of modern life. At the very least it is useful for getting from A to B. In fact, however, this is not always so easy. We have to be able to read the road map and we need to know where we are. Planning the most economical route can also present problems, particularly if we are unexpectedly held up during the journey. A team at the Philips Project Centre at Geldrop, in the Netherlands, are just rounding off their work on prototypes of an electronic vehicle-guidance system called CARIN (an acronym for Car Information and Navigation System). During the journey CARIN speaks through a speech synthesizer to tell the driver which road to take at crossings and road junctions. Before the journey the system also plans the best route, finding a way round traffic delays. In the design of CARIN the vast storage capacity of the CD-I (Compact Disc Interactive) was of inestimable value for recording the digitized map data.
