The first audio/video/navigation system with full map display that merges entertainment, navigation, information and vehicle dynamics technologies into one product. System includes turn-by-turn map database, detailed route guidance for the entire United States and Canada that is highly accurate

Memory Navigation is an industry-first mapping technology that allows consumers to access all the features of both the navigation and A/V system simultaneously rather than facing an either-or choice.

AVIC-N1 offers simple touch panel or voice command letting consumers simultaneously access Memory Navigation information (route guidance, electronic mapping, points of interests, etc.), entertainment (audio entertainment for front seat passengers, DVD-video entertainment for rear seat passengers) and vehicle dynamics (speed, acceleration, lateral G-Force, angular velocity, slope, angle, etc.).
Listen to AM/FM/XM satellite radio, play DVD movies for rear passengers and monitor the performance of the vehicle, all at the same time.

Features:

• High-end GPS-based navigation system
• Detailed Tele Atlas U.S and Canada digital turn-by-turn map data including points of interest
• 6.5-inch LCD monitor that can be folded away in a single-DIN
• Voice prompts guidance

• Vehicle dynamics mode
• Voltage, compass and clock features
• Acceleration to measure forward and backward G-Force
• Lateral G-Force to measure maximum cornering force
• Angular velocity to measure turn rate
• Slope to measure the incline
• Memory Navigation function that automatically stores map and route data into its internal memory
• A/V status mode (split screen between map and standard radio/CD display)

The AVIC-N1 provides accurate detailed route guidance for the entire United States and Canada. Once a consumer selects a destination, the AVIC-N1’s extremely fast processor calculates a route in approximately 10 seconds and provides directions via voice prompts. A separate positioning CPU is used for accurate vehicle positioning on detailed mapping that displays the route on a 6.5-inch LCD touch screen monitor. By using separate CPUs for these two functions, Pioneer’s navigation system is faster and more accurate than other systems.

The Acceleration and Lateral G-Force gauges can perform peak holds so users are able to see and track their vehicle’s performance. Performance minded automobile enthusiasts will enjoy the ability to assess vehicle dynamics and compare results to what is often reported in the latest automobile magazines.

The AVIC-N1 is also a high quality audio system with MOSFET50 (50 watts X 4 amplifier), three pre-amp outputs and three band parametric equalizer. The system can be expanded with other sources such as XM satellite radio, CD changer, DVD changer and TV tuner. All sources are direct access using its touch screen display.

The state-of-the art audio/video entertainment system provides full dual zone capabilities, as well as DVD video playback, single CD, MP3 CDs and AM/FM/XM satellite radio all with maximum power and sound performance

Consumers can obtain route guidance information, listen to AM/MF/XM satellite radio, play DVD movies for rear passengers and monitor the performance of the vehicle all at the same time.

The system also includes a camera input so owners of large vehicles can view an image from a rear camera on the screen. This feature allows owners of SUVs and RVs to see a boat or vehicle they may be towing for added safety.
