Don’t Hate Traffic — Avoid It We hate congestion as much as you do. With traffic services on your navigator, you’ll avoid traffic caused by accidents, construction or other delays. Our traffic services work with your device to suggest alternate routes and guide you around trouble spots. It sifts through all kinds of traffic data to find you the quickest, most hassle-free route. So you don’t have to mess with traffic. Formerly 3D Digital Traffic Garmin HD Digital Traffic® delivers updates as often as every 30 seconds over the HD Radio™ system. That’s up to 10 times more often than other analog traffic receivers. Lifetime¹ HD Digital Traffic is included with select Prestige series navigators. To get HD Digital Traffic on other compatible navigators, simply add a GTM 60 traffic receiver. Check the coverage map³ for details. Formerly 3D Live Traffic With the Smartphone Link app, Live Traffic delivers up-to-date “live” traffic information to your navigator using your existing mobile data plan².

Live Traffic is updated every 2 minutes and receives more than 1,000 messages every update cycle. This real-time information is available through a premium Smartphone Link subscription. Garmin Traffic delivers updates to our navigators over one of the most extensive traffic avoidance systems. The Garmin Traffic system checks traffic conditions more than 2 billion times a month to help you avoid delays due to accidents, construction or rush-hour congestion. Lifetime¹ Traffic is included with select Advanced series navigators. What is traffic avoidance? Garmin Traffic delivers alerts about wrecks, slow downs and construction delays. It’s just like a radio traffic report, only you don’t have to wait for the radio station to air the report. Your navigator monitors traffic conditions automatically on your specific route and in your area³. How does it help you? A navigator with traffic services can let you know about delays on your route and suggest or automatically take alternate routes to guide you around the trouble spots.

Where does the traffic data come from? Traffic alerts come from a traffic data collection system that analyzes traffic flow data collected from more than 2 billion observation points every month: data from millions of Garmin device ownersHow To Clean Nutone Bathroom Exhaust Fan data from millions of cellular phone ownersTeddy Bear Puppies For Sale In Rhode Island radio feeds of live informationSheltie Mix Puppies For Sale In California historical traffic data from NAVTEQ Traffic Supply historical traffic data from Garmin device owners fixed traffic sensors on major roads giving extremely accurate traffic reports Traffic data collected from more observation points, more often, helps your navigator find efficient driving routes for you.

Get a Device with Lifetime Traffic Devices with “T” in the model name include lifetime traffic. So you don't have to purchase a separate traffic receiver or traffic subscription. Just plug it in and go. Add Traffic Services to Your Device To get lifetime traffic on a traffic-compatible device, simply purchase a separate traffic receiver, such as the GTM 60 HD Digital Traffic Receiver or GTM 36. Make sure your device is compatible before purchasing. Traveling to a new region? Get traffic alerts at your destination by adding a traffic service for that region (traffic receiver and corresponding map required). You may also need an antenna extension cable. ¹Lifetime traffic extends for the useful life of your Garmin traffic receiver or as long as Garmin receives traffic data from its traffic supplier, whichever is shorter. A traffic receiver's "useful life" means the period during which the receiver (a) has the required technical capabilities to utilize current traffic data service and (b) is capable of operating as intended without major repairs.

Elaborate: The engineering company has said it could build its famous passenger jet engines, pictured, from parts made by 3D printers

The 3D printers, some which will fit on to a desktop, create three-dimensional objects rather than 2-dimensional images on a page.Rolls-Royce head of technology strategy Dr Henner Wapenhans said: ‘One of the great advantages in the aerospace world is that some of these parts that we make have very long lead times, because of the tooling process. ‘And then it takes potentially 18 months to get the first part after placing an order - versus printing it, which could be done quite rapidly. Even if it takes a week to print, that’s still a lot faster.‘3D printing opens up new possibilities. Through the 3D printing process, you’re not constrained by having to get a tool in to create a shape. You can create any shape you like.‘There are studies that show one can create better lightweight structures, because you just take the analogy of what nature does and how bones are built up. And so things that are simple things like brackets can be made a lot lighter.’ Hi-tech to high street: 3D printers are now available in shops for around £1,600 and are moving into mass production

Dr Wapenhans said Rolls-Royce could also make cost savings because it would not need to spend money to store key parts but could ‘print’ them as required.The technology is set to transform many areas of manufacturing. Sales of 3D printers soared last year to £1.5billion and is expected to hit £4billion by 2017, say City experts at analysts Wohlers. Savings: Using printing technology to make parts could save substantial sums currently spent on lengthy construction and storage Once seen as a hi-tech piece of specialist equipment, 3D printers have begun to move into mass production in recent months. High street electronics store Maplin is selling the first version on the high street for £1,600.The technology dates back to the 1980s when 3D printers used plastics. But the latest versions of the technology is capable of building complex shapes from ceramics and metal.They can be programmed to create a host of items, from sports shoes ton hip-replacement and hit the headlines recently amid claims they were being used to manufacture parts for guns.

Scientists are even experimenting with the technology with a view to using cells to create spare body parts and organs.Pupils in UK schools are also to be taught to experiment with the technology under new Government plans to drive up standards in subjects such as maths and science.London’s Science Museum is currently exhibiting 600 3D printed objects.Rolls-Royce plc chief executive John Rishton has vowed to crack down on costs in a bid to keep up with arch-rivals in the aero-engine world such as US giant General Electric which also plans to use 3D printers, including to form fuel nozzles for jet engines.German electronics giant Siemens and car-maker and aero-engine manufactuerer BMW are also developing 3D printing applications.Suzy Antoniw, exhibition leader at London’s Science Museum said: ‘3D printing enables engineers and designers to manufacture things they couldn’t make with traditional methods.‘Every day we learn about new ways in which people from across society are capitalising on the technology to realise their ideas and enrich people’s lives.’
