90° N

On Track in the Whiteout

In whiteout conditions, at temperatures far below zero and without any visible points of orientation, the navigation system «90° N» shows the extreme athlete Anja Blacha her way to the North Pole. The wearable device is specifically designed to cater for her needs and makes orientation possible even in extreme conditions.
