A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words
The C720t makes it fun and easy to capture and store digital photos of your travels. The integrated two-megapixel camera allows users to embed GPS coordinates into images and navigate back to the photographed location. Business card recognition software is also included with this feature, automatically inputting data into your contacts list by simply taking a photo of a business card. Adventures with family, friends or colleagues can now be easily stored, organized and enjoyed over and over again.
"We are confident that the C720t will dramatically alter the perception of GPS technology," said Kiyoshi Hamai, North American sales director, Mio Technology Ltd. "Mio Technology is committed to moving beyond simple driving directions by combining GPS with other portable technologies, and we see the ability to navigate to destinations shown in photos and to sort images by location as a natural evolution of the Mio Technology promise. We are thinking outside the car."
