While some people are still caught up in thinking that GPS is a bit creepy or a violation of privacy, those who are embracing it are truly heightening their lives to another dimension.
Modern GPS innovations go far beyond built in applications in gadgets like mobile phones and cars; there are now GPS systems built into cameras so you remember exactly where you snapped your photo. There are GPS units to monitor and track children, GPS shoes to help you track your marathon, and even GPS lingerie for those who like to keep close tabs on their girlfriends.
The slideshow below highlights some of the most interesting ways GPS systems are being used today, or might be used in the future.
