Honda Includes Crime Maps in Navigation Systems in Japan
The good thing that Honda has done is that they are highlighting high crime areas in the maps of Japan on the Navigation System. As its is the system offers real-time traffic information, weather maps, restaurant ratings, speed limit information, parking garage availability, traffic camera locations (in Europe), and points of interest (POIs) numbering in the multiple millions. The Japanese Navi System highlights high crime areas so you can navigate around potential trouble spots. Apparently Mitsubishi had unveiled a prototype crime-aware navigation system at the CEATEC show in Tokyo in fall 2006. The system will now be available next week on Hondas sold in Japan. It rates districts by level of risk. A Honda spokesman in the U.S. says there is "no pending plan to add this feature to our system."
