Myrimis Lets Users Keep Track of Friends and Possessions on Mobile Phones
24 January 2008
Portable navigation system maker Nanomatic unveiled at CES its new
navigation services: Myrimis, “a secure place on earth,” and
Nanonavi, “personal navigation on earth.
“Consumers today are demanding features beyond simple navigation
that help them find more places, people, products and services
they’re seeking along the way,” said Nanomatic CEO August Bodo
Schnabel. “PINAV (Personal Information and Navigation) is one of the
fastest growing ‘must-have’ technologies for consumers, as well as
for the consumer electronics manufacturers and wireless carriers
focused on developing innovative applications to serve this growing
market.”
Myrimis allows the user to set up their own “real life” location-
based social network that includes family members, friends, pets and
assets like cars, boats and homes. Users can create innovative
services like virtual-caring for persons and pets, as well as home
and car security and control. It keeps you sane - instead of
paranoid - during those long trips.
Nanonavi is available as a free download for Nokia and Motorola
mobile phones, and it allows people to view where they are on street
and satellite maps, search for family members, friends, pets and
assets and create routes to get there. Photos taken by the mobile-
phone are “geotagged” and sent to Myrimis and Flickr.
