Last weekend I took the new LG phone Optimus GT540 to an ultimate road test. Well, it was not only a test, it was a test drive with Wikitude Drive. Wikitude Drive is a Augmented Reality navigation application we developed within the last year.

nice. Will there be a list of supported Android devices? I assume it’s necessary to test Wikitude Drive on most Android device with different os Version and screen sizes. since this apps Looks like a Game changer in the Navigation Space, I believe that it is high prio enough for handset providers provide you with test devices. i would, if i was a handset provider!
great work!!! — Tom
Hi Wikitude,
i really appreiciate that you are also concerned of the users of more or less “low end” hardware. I am using a HTC Wildfire. What do you think? Would Wikitude Drive work also on this handset?

Hi Tom,
Thx for your comment. We will post a list with supported Android devices for Drive within the next weeks to make sure our users know if Drive is running on their device.
If you need anything further, just contact me.

Hi Woldfireuser,
Thx for your comment. Wikitude Drive was tested successfully on numerous handsets and it should run on around 90% of Android devices. We will post a list with supported devices the next weeks. Please stay tuned.

How about Europe? (e.g. Germany or Austria)
I’m looking very much forward to test this application… is the price already known?
Will one be able to add POIs as well? Is there a traffic service planned?
I think this could be really a hard opponent to current big companies like Tomtom or Navigon…
Hi,
Wikitude Drive will also be available in Europe, so stay tuned. The price will be published together with the launch of Wikitude Drive, so I can’t give you any details on this yet. We’ll keep you updated on the features or prices on our webpage.
Greetings
