The concept is simple: create a system that tells you where to go, but not how to get there. Think of it like a videogame map tool that enables you to define the route you take.

The device connects to your smartphone via an iOS or Android app and uses your phone's GPS to work the magic of its navigation. It's backlit display is easy to read in sunlight and can be charged via USB.

You can order one today direct from BeeLine for a very reasonable £99.
