Imagine you forgot where one of your picture was taken by your digicam. for example if u took 6 photograps of sunset at different places. and after a week when u forget where does the sunset NO. 5 was taken place? this might be just like a puzzle to you or headache for me also. If your cameras use its memory to store all these things using a technology that we generally call GPS (Global Positioning System) . that is amazing some one said, but how and who will solve the problem . and the answer is...................................
A Taiwan-based digital camera company OEM Altek would be launching the first ever 8-megapixel consumer digital camera with integrated GPS and mechanical geotagging by this June. Truly, it doesn’t claim to be the first device to coalesce GPS and digital camera features as there are devices that have built-in digital camera or high-end cameras with incorporated GPS features. Standing away from those, it takes pride in being the world’s first pocket-sized compact camera with incorporated GPS utility.
Featuring 3-inch touch screen, the photos captured via this camera are customarily geo tagged and then depict its positioning on Google Earth, Google Maps or Flickr’s geotagged photos service. It is a great tool in the hands of travel freaks as they can tap the places from where pictures are taken via this camera and form a travel journal that’s based on map. Its entry would be an alarm to other camera developers to deliver high-quality consumer cameras will incorporated built-in GPS.
