Cobra iRadar gets Android support in January
There are tons of GPS devices on the market and some of the expensive ones have GPS inside that allows them to tell how fast the vehicle is going and provide warnings for speed cameras and driving hazards like speed traps. Cobra unveiled a cheap radar detector system for the iPhone not long ago called iRadar.
Cobra has announced that it will be bringing iRadar to Android devices at CES in January. The iRadar system is a Bluetooth enabled multi-band radar detector that used that Bluetooth connectivity to interface with an app on the Android device. The GPS capability of the smartphone allows the detector to warn about speed cameras and speed traps.
The app also allows the user to change the settings of the detector and view alerts on the smartphone screen. The best part is that the iRadar system is cheaper than many of the stand-alone radar detectors with GPS at $169.95. Cobra will ship iRadar for Android in Q1 2011.
