NN4D was very excited to participate in the 2011 European Satellite Navigation Competition. NAVTEQ was a sponsor of the European Satellite Navigation Competition and gave out a Special Topic Prize for Best Mobile Enterprise Solution. If you are not familiar with the European Satellite Navigation Competition, it is an international competition that seeks navigational concepts that harness the increased accuracy and reliability provided by Europe's satellite navigation system, Galileo.
We are excited to announce the winner of the Special Topic Prize for Best Mobile Enterprise Solution, Making Virtual Solid!
Not only did Making Virtual Solid win the NAVTEQ Special Topic Prize, but they also won the USA Regional Prize and the overall Galileo Master prize!
Our congratulations go out to Making Virtual Solid for winning all three prizes!
What did they win?
Making Virtual Solid will receive a business incubation package valued at over €75,000 in data licenses, technical consulting and business development services. Making Virtual Solid was chosen by NAVTEQ for its location-aware mobile True3D™ Head Up Display. The True3D HUD is used to safely portray objects as translucent overlays in the landscape, inside the natural field of view while driving, using an immersive augmented reality projection system. The system can pull preferences from a smartphone to display safety and navigational symbols that enhance real objects and images on the road in front of the driver.
Yeah, we are talking an augmented reality (AR) display that is a bit different than your traditional HUD so check out their website to see how it works. It is seriously very cool!
Making Virtual Solid had to beat out over 40 mobile enterprise solution ideas received from around the world. NAVTEQ evaluated these submissions using a strict set of judging criteria. These criteria included innovation, marketability, feasibility, and effective implementation of location content.
Once again, our congratulations go to Making Virtual Solid on their big win!
Now, how about some pictures of the event!
