Sony GPS CS1 is a simple location tracking module. It helps to match a photo with place where the photo is taken at. I can browse tracks where I travelled on Google Earth or Cyworld map service as well. It's fun! You can make a content for a real SPIME . But besides of accuracy problem, there are some problem with this. It can provide information about a place.. But it can't provide heading direction (Direction of point view). And if it is possible altitude information will be useful as well. And still GPS information such as "N37,32,54/E126,54,56.8" is not familiar with me. It should be "Near Hapjeung rotary heading west".

Ticket monitor: Driver has to change mode if passenger want to pay multiple charge or change passenger mode for teenager or kid. 4. Exchange buttons: By pressing button, it will give changes to passenger who pays in cash. 5. RF Card reader: For transportation card passengers, it provides voice feedback. Same module is installed at rear gate. If you want to continue travel to other bus or train, you have to check it out. 6. Handbrake and announcement amp console. 7. Green tea bottle on towel: It seems there is no cup holder. What a future. Isn't it? But...
