Agency Invents GPS That Switches to a Child's Voice Around Schools

Forsman & Bodenfors has developed a sat nav app for If insurance that speaks in a child's voice when driving near schools and day care centres. The app acts like any other satellite navigation system except in areas where there are likely to be children, when it switches to a child’s voice to remind driver’s to be more careful. The app is free to download on the App Store and Google Play but only works in Sweden, Finland and Norway. People can flag extra areas where there are likely to be children and get them added to the app by visiting If’s website.
