When most of us believe of heads - up displays , our learning ability almost immediately wander into skill fiction fantasies . And lord know I ’ve been fantasizing about a relatively inexpensive unit of measurement that will put turn - by - play piloting on my windshield . Goodbye , awkward smartphone mount , hello , Garmin HUD .
Thenew Garmin HUDsits on your dashboard , envision navigation information at eye - level onto either a guileless pic you stick to your windscreen or onto an included reflecting telescope lens ( so you’re able to apply it in rental , for example ) . The unit pairs wirelessly via Bluetooth with a smartphone run one of Garmin ’s pilotage apps ( Street Pilot or NAVIGON ) from which it take out play - by - good turn directions . Besides the obvious information the HUD projects useful details including what lane you should be in for your next move , and a constantly - updated estimated prison term of arriver .
OK , so this is n’t precisely Tony Stark - vision , but for $ 130 , the Garmin HUD does exactly what we need it to at a toll most of us can give . Garmin say the dashboard wart will be usable this summer . [ GarminviaThe Verge ]
