abstract="Following a survey of the current state of the art of In-Vehicle Navigation Systems, this paper presents a projection, to the end of the century, of how these systems will evolve in each of the major market places: North America, Europe, and Japan. The expected evolution of system types, capabilities, and features are described, along with a projection of the characteristics of the markets. The author believes that the self-contained Route Guidance System is most likely to dominate the field for a variety of technological, market place, and sociological reasons. The paper also discusses the effect of Government on this technology, both in terms of potential boosts and potential impediments. Such activities include infrastructure construction, regulation, information availability, etc. The author argues for a relatively modest Government role in vehicle navigation, focusing on facilitating private sector efforts, standards, and ensuring safety.   <p>Language: en</p>",
