Telematics is the set of products and technologies that bring information into and out of a vehicle.The authors will discuss a brief history of telematics, current trends in the enabling technologies and their application for automotive use. Beyond the technology, telematics has been at best a patchy story commercially to date, with revenues for the business players in the complex value chain always seeming to be 'just around the comer'. The authors discuss some of the reasons for this, based on customer willingness to pay for different features, and illustrate how electronic road pricing might help to break the existing impasse, principally in the European marketplace. First three strands of technology history will be discussed that have enabled telematics to exist in its current form, as data into the car (eg. RDS traffic information within a car radio), geographical location (eg. GPS) and two-way communication (eg. GSM phone).
