Still Waters Posted May 21, 2012 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2012 You might think that in-car map readers are a recent invention - given that you need satellite navigation technology to make them work.But a crude form of the car tech was actually around as early as 1930. The Iter Avto, which used a map on a scroll, is believed to be the first onboard direction guide. Just like the modern devices such as a Tom Tom or Garmin, the device was positioned on the dashboard of a car - and came with a set of paper maps. http://www.dailymail...map-scroll.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
