Re: ti-85 as a GPS???



Hi Tim!

Not a chance in the world!  I have a GPS and you need very sophisticated hardware and software to implement it.  The best you could do is get one of the more sophisticated  GPS units with a serial link, and download data to your calc.  Way to expensive.  I went to school with a guy that wrote software for imbedded GPS products, and he had many MB of memory and a fast processor to do it.

Does anyone have an idea about how plausible it would be for a ti-85
calculator to be used as a Global Positioning System?
