Iter Avto's forerunner GPS in the form of roller-moved map

SPAIN, - Iter Avto actually more like a map in the form of a roller which moves with the motion of the car. Map rotates in the middle, like a screen.

Then the principle of rotation similar to the speedometer which moves rely on the wheels. Iter Avto was placed just as people today put a global positioning system (GPS), which is in the middle under the dash.

A roll of paper illustrated the path and name of the dots and then pinned in it. Its use depends on the location that is being addressed. If the user wants to London for example, they must install a roll of special maps of London. If you move, have to change reels.

Brilliant compliment to the idea of ​​Iter Avto as a guide in the car out when it finally turned the car user. The map does not go turn because it can only be used when the car is moving straight.

The existence of any Avto Iter is unclear given the data producer and creator names such as lost time. However, if the talk "who first made", the guide had also made ​​a similar road in England, even 10 years earlier or the range of 1920. The device, called Plus Fours Routefinder is even more simple. Shaped like a wristwatch.

The principle works the same as the Iter Avto, using the roll map. However, the manual movement, namely playing around with your fingers.

it has been already used GPS, it's long before people understand by a guide device in the car sort of global positioning system, a product called by Iter Avto already made ​​in Spain in 1930.

Do not imagine the sophisticated in-car devices that rely on satellites such as made by ​​Alpine (1981) or Etrak (1983), or be asked to designate the road with our voices (the latter is recognized even make trouble). Iter Avto much simpler, just rely on the paper roll as a walking map.
