Product of the Year | Snowsports Hardgoods | Ortovox Diract Voice
Voice control for rescuers: The Diract Voice avalanche transceiver by Ortovox is extremely easy and intuitive to use – thereby it saves crucial time in case of emergency. Just 2.3 centimeters slim and 210 grams light, Diract Voice is the world's first avalanche transceiver with voice navigation. It guides the user to the destination with clear instructions and is designed to significantly speed up the search and rescue of buried victims.
In an emergency, it can be a matter of seconds: When rescuing avalanche victims, speed is of the essence. The rescuers themselves are often stressed or even in shock – the search in rough terrain is a huge challenge. Until now, rescuers had to rely on the visual signals on the small displays of their avalanche beacons. With Diract Voice by Ortovox comes the first avalanche transceiver that guides you to the victims with clear and distinct spoken instructions – a quantum leap that should dramatically speed up the search.
