What does the work of navigators look like at present? To get from point A to point B, you need to score a search for a route in two systems at once - on a smartphone and in a car navigator, so that when you get to the parking lot you’ll go further on the tip of the phone. It is long and uncomfortable. The automaker Mercedes-Benz and Google Glass announced that the companies are testing the possible interaction of two navigation systems: mobile in the face of Google Glass and built-in automotive.
The specially developed application, which does not even have a name yet, sends navigation data to the car directly from the smartphone. It is enough to request a route from the points, and the data will automatically go to the navigation system. In addition, nothing prevents you from displaying speed and route data on the Google Glass display, switching the tracks of the car radio by voice, and most importantly, loading the car repair instructions into the glasses, showing tips when you look at individual mechanisms.
