A new SatNav tour guide that alerts motorists to Britain’s greatest historical sites as they drive near has just been launched. The RoadTour software works with Garmin and GPS equipped Windows Mobile devices to trigger audio commentary and pictures of 600 key attractions, including castles, stately homes and battlefields.
As cars approach places of historical interest throughout the UK it delivers information narrated by a friendly female voice and means you will no longer remain oblivious to the cultural treasures around you as you traverseBritain’s roads.
Five years in the making, this invention fulfils creator Daniel Taylor’s passion for history and his desire to help Britons use technology to get the most out of our heritage.
“Restoring our knowledge and understanding of the history of this amazing country is what this product is about, A friendly reminder, which tempts us into exploring our heritage as we’re driving up the M40 or wherever, seems to me to be altogether a good thing."
