Classic Tech: Knight Rider GPS (2008) by Mio Technology
In September of 2008, Mio Technology released a Knight Rider themed stand-alone global positioning system device for vehicles.
This device featured the official voice of K.I.T.T. - the futuristic car of the original TV series - voiced by actor William Daniels and was touted as being able to address the owner by their first name.
The short-lived device ended its run in under a year making these sought after by collectors and fans of the show (both old and new).
We'll give you a visual brochure, some interesting history of the device and of course, show it in operation.
Enjoy!
