TomTom LIVE Services The TomTom GO 940 LIVE series comes with a range of essential information services for motorists, delivered directly to the devices �over-the-air� via a built-in SIM card: TomTom High Definition Traffic� According to recent research, 49% of Britons say that traffic jams are the most frustrating and stressful part of their day.

The expected time of arrival will also be adjusted accordingly. TomTom Safety Alerts with mobile camera data from Road Angel� With an average of �60 in camera fines received per driver in the UK every year, accurate safety camera data is becoming more and more vital. As well as a comprehensive fixed safety camera database, users will have access to the most accurate mobile camera data, supplied in partnership with Road Angel (UK only). In addition, the service will include real-time safety camera reporting and sharing, meaning users can keep each other informed about mobile safety cameras.

The innovative IQ Routes� technology is based on real average speeds measured on roads, rather than static maximum speeds per road type. This means the newTomTom GO range determines a route by considering all possible routes and then selecting the one that takes the least time. In almost 50% of all journeys, this results in driving a different and faster route, saving significant travel time as well as saving money and fuel. In addition, the new TomTom GO 940 features Advanced Lane Guidance, a first for the navigation mass market. Advanced Lane Guidance gives drivers a more realistic view and enhanced visual instructions of drivers� surroundings, ensuring they are better informed about the situation ahead. IQ Routes� �With the introduction of IQ Routes� technology, we continue to focus our efforts on features and content that improve the core navigation experience�, says Harold Goddijn, TomTom�s chief executive officer. �Everyone knows that traffic on Sunday is different to traffic on Monday and this is exactly what has been taken into account on the new TomTom GO. IQ Routes� delivers what we call �intelligent routing� � an even smarter and efficient way of planning your daily route.� TomTom IQ Routes� The new TomTom IQ Routes� technology is based on actual average speeds on roads, rather than the sign-posted speed limits. This intelligent routing technology is based on anonymous historical speed profiles of over 10 billion kilometres of driven roads, gathered over the years by millions of TomTom users. It takes into account all the factors that may influence the time it takes drivers to get to their destination, including traffic lights, roundabouts, steep slopes and speed bumps. The TomTom IQ Routes� speed profile database continues to grow at the rate of over half a billion measurements per day, so the time and spatial accuracy ofTomTom IQ Routes� technology will continually increase. Drivers can be confident that they will always be given the smartest route incorporating detailed local knowledge. This allows for more efficient daily route planning, in particular when driving through urban and mountainous areas. We all know traffic is different during a Monday morning rush hour from a lazy Sunday afternoon. We all want the best shortcuts to bring us to our destination in the fastest way possible. But heavy traffic, speed bumps, traffic lights, roundabouts and even schoolchildren or shopping crowds can slow you down. That handy shortcut you�re looking for varies depending on time and day. Which means your shortest route isn�t necessarily going to be the fastest all the time! Let�s take an example: The standard shortest route from London Commercial Road, to Gloucester Terrace at a relatively quiet time, and without any hold-ups, should take you 20 minutes(screen 1). However, that same shortest route will typically take you 29 minutes during a busier period (reality) (screen 2). Using �local knowledge� gained from the actual travel experiences of thousands of TomTom users on these very roads, IQ Routes� instantly works out your optimal route from London Commercial Road, to Gloucester Terrace. It also calculates your realistic journey time, based on real speeds people are able to drive, not just speed limits. (screen 3) As you can see, in this case your route is now 0.7 kilometre longer, but will save you 3 minutes (and a good deal of stress!). Now that�s a shortcut! How it works Millions of TomTom users worldwide voluntarily provide us with anonymous historical speed-data from each of their journeys every time they connect their device toTomTom HOME . As a result, TomTom now has a huge database, containing billions of miles of real customer driving experience, collected over the years from more than 7 millionTomTom users. Using this data, TomTom�s unique IQ Routes� technology calculates your optimal route. This route is based on actual speed data driven on roads, not just maximum speed limits, taking into account any hold-ups that might slow you down (busy junctions, zebra crossings and even shopping crowds). This data enhances the quality of TomTom navigation across the board, but is particularly helpful in improving the quality of detailed routing we give you for the specific time of day and day of the week of your chosen trip. Drive like local So even if you drive through unfamiliar areas, you still can drive like a local by knowing the short cuts that are based on the collective driving experience of millions ofTomTom users. Did you know? IQ Routes� technology gives you a faster route in over 50% of all your journeys. And don�t forget: IQ Routes� is just one of many groundbreaking TomTom technologies that make your journey quicker, easier, safer, more predictable and less stressful. A real difference 3 Minutes may not sound much, but it�s over 10% off your journey time. Just consider for a moment how much time that will save you over a whole year� Exactly! And it�s not just urban driving. Whether its roundabouts, crossroads, schoolchildren or just good old-fashioned congestion. Anywhere the traffic flow can vary, IQ Routes can make a real difference. Advanced Lane Guidance With the new Advanced Lane Guidance feature, navigating difficult junctions becomes easier than ever before. The realistic representation of highway junctions on the screen including clear arrows indicating the lane direction, provide drivers with timely instructions to take the correct lane. Static images of road signs, in the same colour as the ones displayed on the road ensure drivers have an even better overview of their surroundings. Screen 1 You have your normal 3D navigation view up to 800 metres from the junction. Screen 2 From 800 meters until you�re through the junction, your TomTom device displays a clear image of the junction. This shows the relevant road signs with numbers and directions, and a blinking arrow that clearly shows which lane you must take. Your screen throughout this has the still image and your status bar remains updated with dynamic information. Screen 3 As soon as you�re through the junction, your screen reverts to the normal view. What could be simpler, what could be safer? Unique TomTom Map Share� Technology In addition, the TomTom GO 940 comes with the latest version of TomTom�s award winning software and all the features of the current TomTom GO 740 andTomTom GO 540. This includes TomTom Map Share� Technology to make easy changes to the map and to share map corrections with other TomTom customers so that users always have the most up-to-date maps available TomTom HD Traffic TomTom HD traffic is basically a replacement power cable which not only powers the SatNav but also has built in communications capabilities (using a SIM card and GPRS) to provide real time traffic information. This data is not just the standard traffic data we get via TMC, but it is enriched with actual current traffic conditions (via anonymous cellphone monitoring) enabling better and more accurate routes to be generated with realistic Estimated Times of Arrival.
