Technology is a scary thing. Well the speed at which technology improves and develops is what’s scary. Back when I first started out in audio, mobile phones were house-brick sized boxes that only the military had, blue-tooth was something you got after eating a blue ice-block and automated navigation was your mate holding a street directory. Moving forward to today and just when you think you’ve seen everything that is possible, a company like Pioneer comes along and jams even more functionality into an already packed device. Pioneer did this last year with its blue-tooth enabled head units and now it has jammed more stuff into its hand held navigators.

Just this year Pioneer released a technology it had been slowly developing since it released the world’s first in-car global positioning system (GPS) way back in 1990. The technology is named Audio Video Information Communication (or AVIC) and is the seamless integration of GPS navigation, bluetooth, information and audio/visual. Introduced recently as a single head unit (the AVIC-HD3), the second product in the AVIC range is the hand held equivalent – the AVIC-S2.
What would look to most like a simple navigation system is actually a very handy organizer/control hub. The 180 gram unit is finished with a very smart blend of gloss black and textured dark grey shock resistant plastic and only measures 102mm x 89mm x 25mm.
Lined along the side is the SD card slot, USB input and head phone jack. Along the front there are two large buttons (map and menu) and a volume wheel that doubles as an enter button. The unit comes with various mounting hardware, protection items and chargers including a windscreen and dash mount brackets, soft carry case in addition to both twelve and two hundred and forty volt charger. The AVIC-S2 is loaded with useful functionality so without further ado, we’ll kick off with the main features and technical details. The low glare liquid crystal touch screen measures 90mm and has a resolution of 320 x 240 pixels which gives a very clear image. It also makes a click sound when you touch the screen which helps when you’re driving along trying to work out whether you have actually selected something without having to stare at it.
The internal patch antenna is strong enough in most cases but if not there is provision for an external aerial to be attached. There are various languages you can choose from and you can also set how long the unit remains switched on for after it is left alone. It also features a calendar and clock.
Moving along to the navigation, the AVIC-S2 is loaded with the latest WhereIs map software (version 14 is installed on an SD card and is fully upgradeable). The navigation facet of the AVIC-S2 is packed with features including spoken voice instructions (with a soothing voice to calm you down during those peak traffic periods), fully programmable point-of-interest (aka POI) database where you can add your own POIs to the already extensive list which includes restaurants, places of interest, emergency services, banks, service stations and more. The features continue with red light and speed camera locations, satellite strength indicator, itinerary event display, distance-to-turn indicator, estimated to of arrival indicator, route time remaining display, address book (including a search function and favourites listing), return home function, destination history, day/night switch ability, route preference selection and switchable map orientation (two or three dimension map display).
This is all controlled via the screen which also boasts a QWERTY or ABC ability. Who Sells What.
