Exclusive: Garmin to Show Pedestrian Nav on Sony SmartWatch at MWC

Garmin is expected to show a pedestrian navigation software embedded in the Android-based Sony SmartWatch 2 at the Mobile World Congress trade show starting in Barcelona next week.

Little details about the solution have filtered so far.

Sony SmartWatch 2, launched at the end of last year, works in conjunction with an Android smartphone. In the case of a navigation software it would leverage the GPS of the smartphone.

Pedestrian navigation is an interesting use case for a smart watch that has not been showcased that much yet.

More information on the Garmin solution will be revealed at the show.
