It provides jobs for millions of people.Automobiles revolutionized transportation in the 20th century, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business.The automobile has enabled people to travel and transport goods farther and faster, and has opened wider market areas for business and commerce.Automobile manufacturers are among the largest companies in the world. These corporations are often multinational. These companies often share parts, or use parts made in foreign factories.At the start of the 21st century, the trends of global trade and manufacturing flexibility continue. Computerization continues to be a major part of auto design and manufacture.*Global Positioning System (GPS):space-based radio-navigation system, consisting of 24 satellites and ground support. GPS provides users with accurate information about their position and velocity(速度), as well as the time, anywhere in the world and in all weather conditions.GPS determines location by computing the difference between the time that a signal is sent and the time it is received. GPS satellites carry atomic clocks that provide extremely accurate time.As of March 1994, 24 GPS satellites were in operation. GPS applications continue to grow in land, sea, air, and space navigation.The ability to enhance safety and to decrease fuel consumption will make GPS an important component of travel in the international airspace system. Airplanes will use GPS for landing at fogbound airports. Automobiles will use GPS as part of intelligence transportation systems.*Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS):advanced electronics, communications, and computer systems that increase the efficiency and safety of highway transportation.Originally known as Intelligent Vehicle/ Highway Systems (IVHS), these technologies can provide real-time information exchange between drivers and the roads, giving rise to the terms “smart cars” and “smart highways.”As the technologies have expanded to include public transportation and commercial vehicles, this range of technologies has become known as the Intelligent Transportation System.Increasingly, drivers will have access to up-to-the-minute information on traffic conditions, alternate routes, and directions to unfamiliar destinations.

Automobile Industry
The automobile industry is one of the most important industries in the world, affecting not only economies but also cultures. It provides jobs for millions of people, generates billions of dollars in worldwide revenues, and provides the basis for a multitude of related service and support industries. Automobiles revolutionized transportation in the 20th century, changing forever the way people live, travel, and do business. Between 1886 and 1898, about 300 automobiles were built, but there was no real established industry. A century later, with automakers and auto buyers expanding globally, automaking became the world's largest manufacturing activity, with more than 53 million new vehicles built each year worldwide. Automobile manufacturers are among the largest companies in the world. These corporations are often multinational. These companies often share parts, or use parts made in foreign factories. The U.S. automobile industry produced 16.8 million vehicles in 1999. The three major automobile manufacturers in the United States--General Motors Corporation, Ford Motor Company, and Daimler Chrysler AG--provide three fourths of the industry's total direct employment in the United States.
