GPS heads-up display gives your car a Top Gun feel

GPS_HUD.jpg

If you've longed to have some type of fighter-jet technology in your car you'll be happy to know GlobalTop Technology is showing off the GPS HUD Speed Meter at a trade show this week. What's cool about this gadget is it displays driving information like your speed and direction on the windshield of your car.

The GPS HUD (as in "heads-up display"), while placing critical driving data in your line of sight, also alerts you when you might draw the attention of the fuzz via a user-defined speed-warning function. It even interfaces via wireless Bluetooth for connection to smartphones and the like, according to Digital Reviews Network (though we aren't quite sure why yet). No word on availability on this auto accessory, but we would also ask GlobalTop to develop plug-ins like a dog tracker so we can follow Fido after he wanders off.
