Remenber the snowy roadtrip we at Gaadi.com did last month? (READ HERE). On the same trip , we had taken along unique products from a UK based company , One of them being the RoadHawnk Automated Drive Recorder system.

This is a compact twin camera digital video / audio / data recorder unit which comes in handy in a lot of ways inclduing safety. As suggested in the last line , the unit has camera on both the sides which lets it record the happenings inside the car as well as on the road ahead .The camera have a wide angle view which covers a lot of area of interest. What's more important is the face that the RoadHawnk devices has built-in GPS as well as night vision system and built-in G sensors. All these functionalities help in event data for accident reconstruction as well as lets the owner see where the vehicle went and at what speeds! 

We however used the RoadHawk for a different purpose - to show you guys our route for the snowy travelogue and also show you the road conditions we drove in(to be shared later). We have enough data of driving on wet roads which soon translated into white ones with snow as deep as a couple of feet! This was an exiciting product for us and showed the speeds we did as well as the G forces we encountered on mountain roads - a must have if you wish to share your trip with others and let them experience a virtual one! 

Main pointers about the RoadHawk unit
