Amaryllo is a new startup company from Europe that specialize in GPS trip tracking devices mostly for outdoors people such as trackers, back-packers, bicyclists, runners and so on… Their flagship product; the Amaryllo Trip Tracker is waterproof small form factor portable gadget equipped with integrated GPS and stopwatch. The Amaryllo Trip Tracker has multiple uses for various sports:

• Trackers and back-packers can use the device to get their exact co-ordinates to find their position on a map, they can use the device as a compass and can use the system to see how long they have been walking and with what average and maximum speed. The device can also navigate to way-points, so they can pre-plan their entire route in advance.
• Bicyclers can use the device to continuously monitor their exact speed (determined using satellite data), their maximum speed, their average speed, the driven distance etc… on the display.
• Wind surfers and sailors can use the device as real time navigation aid: position, waypoints, speed and compass. Furthermore, they can use the device for evaluating their route data (speed, location, etc…).
