The navigation market, forms a large scale in market in Japan, and has just begun to emerge in the U.S. following its emergence in Europe. And Asia is next.

Although Europe and the U.S. have led the way within the telematics market, Japan is close to catching and overtaking these areas.
As a matter of course, it can be said that as technologies developed in the Japanese market have spread to the world, big opportunities now exist in the navigation and telematics markets. As these technologies are used in automobiles, a field in which Japan has global brand power, a significant synergy exists.

The beginnings of an Asian navigation market are starting to develop in South Korea, Taiwan, and China. Significantly, auto sales doubled in the Chinese market in 2003. China is a big automobile seller and is becoming a big automobile producer. As a people, the Chinese have a disposition towards desiring navigation technology.

The development of the Asian telematics market is accelerated in South Korea, which has thus far led in the field of high-speed mobile communications. South Korea, which has already gained a global competitive edge in mobile communications by using CDMA as a standard, is starting to develop international competitiveness in telematics, an extension of mobiles. Taiwan is also making advances in development, targeting the Chinese market. IT companies in Europe and the U.S. are among the first to develop businesses for building networks.

At present, automakers and electronics manufacturers in Japan consider the Asian market to be the most important navigation and telematics market. They are currently focused on how they should be strategically involved in the market to achieve desirable results. Particularly, developments in the Chinese market have become an issue.

Based on these current conditions, we have attempted to research the Asian market, focusing on approaches to the Chinese market. We have centered our focus on areas including strategies by Taiwanese IT companies, strategies by Hyundai, Samsung, and LG in South Korea, and the rise of Chinese companies.

We have also widened the research scope to encompass the current state of 3G across Asia, as the emergence of 3G accelerates the growth of telematics.
