Clarion automotive A/V gear headed into space
Filed under: Misc. Gadgets, Home Entertainment
It looks like Clarion is about to get some considerable new bragging rights (shared only by the likes of Tang), as some of its automotive A/V gear has recently been approved by NASA and is now awaiting deployment into space. That includes the company’s RX935VD in-dash multimedia center and VCZ625 6-disc DVD changer, each of which have been fitted into a specially designed unit and will soon be used to entertain crew members on the universal Space Station. As Clarion points out, that makes
those the first car A/V components to be installed in the ISS, with their reliance 12 volt automotive systems (the same voltage as the space station) working largely in their favor. No word on an exact launch period just yet, but the gear is now ready and waiting in Star City for the next available spot to free up.
