【 Main features 】
■Matrix
AV selector for flexible display of three different images on three in-car
monitors
Equipped with two sets of external AV
input terminals and two sets of external AV output terminals, the AV5101
can display three different images including a car navigation screen on
the AV5101's 5.8-inch monitor and up to two other monitors (optional) installed
for rear-seat passengers. The AV5101 allows the change of the image displayed
on each monitor. (Note) Sources of images displayable by rear-seat monitors
are limited.
■ECLIPSE
COMMANDER voice control system (E-COM) for display of car navigation information
on 5.8-inch monitor
The E-COM allows the use of voice for
the control of a car navigation system, a mobile phone and audio equipment
as well as electric devices such as room lamps (ON/OFF operation).
Connection of the E-COM also enables the display of car navigation information, such as turning direction, distance to turning location, distance to destination, and names of roads, on the AV5101's 5.8-inch wide-screen monitor.
Car navigation information, which is conventionally displayed on a 1-DIN-size CD-player-integrated unit, becomes much easier to see on the larger screen of the AV5101.
■Audio input
The audio input terminals (1 set) allows
connection of a portable audio product such as an MP3 player.
【 Example of applications 】
When the AV5101 is connected with a portable DVD player at AV input (1), with a game machine at AV input (2), and also with the E-COM, the front-seat monitor can display (1) car navigation information or radio information, (2) DVD video, or (3) game. Each rear-seat monitor can display (1) DVD video or (2) game.
(The following shows examples of combinations of displayed images.)
Front-seat monitor* | Rear-seat monitor (A) | Rear-seat monitor (B) | |
Example 1 | Car navigation | DVD video | DVD video |
