The gadget you see on the picture is a rear-view mirror. But what all these buttons do? Well let's first imagine a situation: your neighbor had just bought himself a new car and teases you with GPS, hands-free calling, automatic crash response and other hi-tech features that he now has. And the only thing you have in your oldie is a half working radio. But now thanks to OnStar you can answer back worthily. "OnStar FMV" is the first hi-tech rear-view mirror packed with vital functions. It can be installed in almost every car. The price of this gadget is $ 299.99, installation will cost you $ 75 and $ 18.95 cost per month, or you can buy an annual subscription for 9. Now, let's take a look at the things OnStar put into this device.
Automatic crash response: If a built-in accelerometer detects hit OnStar FMV connects you with OnStar advisor. Advisor can provide the information about the location of crash to emergency services, using the information from GPS module, even if the vehicle’s passengers are unable to respond.
