Mio Technology Gives Navigation a New “Spirit”
~ Cutting-edge software improves user experience with intuitive, fast interface ~
LAS VEGAS – Jan. 8, 2009 – Mio Technology announced that its “Mio Spirit” navigation software will be the new software platform for Mio’s North American product line. Being shown at CES 2009, the software is fast and easy to use, and enables users to get the most out of their GPS devices. The interface features uncluttered map views, simple point of interest searches and fewer clicks to reach information vital to the navigation experience.
“Mio Spirit is a breakthrough in current navigation software design,” said Samuel Wang, president, Mio Technology. “By simplifying the navigation device’s interface, users can save time and effort during their travel.”
Mio Spirit is the latest evolution of Mio’s software development capabilities. Devices using the Mio Spirit navigation software will have Text-to-Speech, a more intuitive POI menu – called “Explore Mode” – and optional real-time traffic capabilities. Customer feedback demanded more flexibility when searching for POIs near their current location, destination or along a planned route, and Mio Spirit software delivers all these capabilities. It also makes more information available with fewer clicks on the navigation menu – Mio has increased the navigation options and POI data that can be viewed without clicking through multiple layers of menus.
“Mobile phone and MP3 industry players have already launched products that maximize the latest in touch screen interfaces for an intuitive experience, and the Mio Spirit introduction moves the portable navigation device into the most progressive class of technology and usability,” said Jerry Barbera, vice president of sales and marketing, Mio Technology USA. “Mio Spirit navigation software has been in development for more than two years, using insight from consumer electronics users of all ages. Many said that GPS devices focus only on going from place-to-place – this software incorporates more functions, more simply, and helps users capitalize on what’s possible along the way.”
Mio Spirit offers a user-friendly keyword search function that makes it easier to find a POI. Instead of having to spell out the exact name of a restaurant, a user can enter a portion of a name, such as “café,” and access all nearby POIs with “café” in the name. Mio Spirit software also includes an easy-to-use “slide-screen” function – users can pull up a POI screen, for example, and simply slide it out of view while looking at additional POI screens or a map. A capture button lets users record favorite routes, locations and voice memos during a trip.
Mio Spirit has already been introduced on Mio/Navman devices in various locations in Asia and Europe, and now, all new Mio products launched in North America will ship with the software. Mio will continue to support the MioMap 2008 software that is on the Moov family of devices and provide map data updates for its Moov products.
Mio Technology has put itself in the GPS driver’s seat at CES 2009, announcing new portable navigation devices (PNDs), an improved software platform for Mio’s next North American product offerings and additions to its executive marketing team.
“2009 is going to be a watershed year for Mio,” said Jerry Barbera, vice president of sales and marketing, Mio Technology USA. “We’ve put together an impressive combination of hardware and software – combined with new leadership and strategy that will make us stand out in the market.”
Mio will bring four new PNDs to market in the first half of 2009. The stylish devices span the full range from entry-level to premium and are all packed with easy-to-use features.
