Modern vehicle rental software is cloud-first, mobile-enabled and integrates reservations, fleet management, payments and telematics to streamline operations and improve utilization.
Modern GPS trackers pair multi-constellation positioning with cellular, Bluetooth, or satellite links to support vehicle tracking, personal safety, and fleet telematics. Choose connectivity, battery life, and privacy features that fit your needs.
Automotive GPS uses satellite signals (and often multiple GNSS constellations) to provide meter-level positioning, real-time routing, traffic updates, and telematics for drivers and fleets. Modern systems combine on-board sensors and connected data for more reliable guidance.
Modern GPS watches combine location, fitness sensors, mapping, and cloud syncing. They record routes, offer navigation and safety features (including SOS options in some models), and can replace several older devices depending on priorities like battery life and sensor accuracy.
The Garmin StreetPilot c330 was a compact mid-2000s car GPS that provided basic offline turn-by-turn navigation using GPS plus WAAS. Today it still works as a dedicated offline navigator, but lacks live traffic, frequent map updates, and manufacturer support - making smartphones and modern devices the better choice for most drivers.
Atomic wall clocks sync to national time signals (WWVB), GPS, or internet time to keep correct time and handle daylight saving changes automatically. Choose a model based on reception method, style, and where you'll mount it.
Upgrade your cell phone by matching features to your needs: prioritize software updates, battery life, connectivity (5G/eSIM), camera performance, and total ownership cost.
GPS vehicle tracking has moved beyond alarms to connected telematics that enable live tracking, stolen-vehicle recovery, geofencing, crash alerts, and remote services. Choose a system by balancing features, connectivity, installation, ongoing fees, and privacy.
Remote-control and robotic lawn mowers reduce physical effort and provide convenient, scheduled maintenance for small to medium yards. They offer safety features and require appropriate storage and supervision.
Smartphones evolved from niche gadgets to everyday tools. They enable emergency contact, navigation, photography, remote work, and more - but bring trade-offs: distraction, health questions, and variable costs. Modern designs focus on durability and connectivity.
The Garmin c340 was a mid-2000s automotive GPS known for on-screen maps, voice directions and route recalculation. Today it remains useful as an offline navigator, but live traffic and current maps are better handled by modern devices or smartphone apps.
A modern overview of how auto GPS works: satellites, trilateration, device roles, accuracy improvements, and what GPS can and cannot do.
Emergency call boxes (blue-light phones, elevator phones, roadside call boxes) remain a practical safety measure. They work when phones fail, are highly visible deterrents, and now often include GPS, IP links, and solar power. Many places still use them, though some jurisdictions have reduced numbers where cellphone coverage is strong.
The Garmin StreetPilot c340 was prized for its simple touchscreen, reliable routing, and flexible mounting. Today it's a capable legacy GPS for offline navigation, but modern smartphones and current Garmin models offer more live features and map updates.
GPS watches combine satellite positioning and onboard sensors to record routes, monitor heart rate and calories, provide navigation, sync to apps, and offer safety features like incident detection and SOS.
Modern vehicle tracking combines GNSS positioning, cellular and satellite comms, and cloud telematics to deliver real-time location, geofencing, diagnostics and fleet intelligence for theft prevention and operational efficiency.
Atomic clock radios sync consumer and infrastructure devices to national atomic standards via radio broadcasts, GNSS, or network protocols. They support everyday convenience and critical systems - telecom, finance, power, and science.
