Navigation Device For Travelers
Foretrex 301 is a GPS and navigation device for travelers that feature a rugged design and waterproof casing that makes it highly ideal for military personnel, hikers, campers, skiers, and sports-lover. One of the most impressive features of this gadget is the TrackBack Technology that allows users to store waypoints thus allowing them to retrace their path.
Foretrex 301 is another GPS device made by Garmin which features navigational technologies matched with a rugged and water-proof design to accommodate extreme weather condition and shock. With these features, this gadget is ideal for skiers, travelers, hikers, military personnel, and sports-lover.
This GPS device, which can be put like a wristwatch, has a screen that displays a dotted track to allow users to see the pathways they have already been into. This capability that allows people to retrace their paths is supported by TrackBack Technology.
This technology works by saving the locations (up to 500 sites), thus helping travelers to locate their campsite, vehicle, hotels, inns, and other important landmarks.
In terms of battery life, Garmin has designed Foretrex 301 to last approximately 18 hours with continuous use (the GPS uses AAA batteries).
Another impressive feature of this gadget is that it allows people to provide their own inputs. For example, they can create their own personal routes, install their point-of-interests, and provide other relevant information.
While these technologies allow people to personalize their routes and provide their own input, this gadget lacks pre-loaded map and points-of-interest. And compared to high-end GPS devices, Foretrex 30 lacks the convergence of technology such as camera, touchscreen, and video games.
Meanwhile, the device also has a USB port for computer connection which is important in case those users want to transfer the routes and waypoints to their PC.
