Britech to track and map unicycle teams as they Ride The Lobster

Britech Information Systems of Lawrencetown, Nova Scotia, excels in real-time geography -- knowing where you are on planet earth, to the nearest metre and within a fraction of a second, and telling something about you and your environment such as your temperature, heart rate or body movement.

They have joined Ride The Lobster as a key sponsor, to track the international unicycle teams via satellite and stream their positions LIVE to maps on the internet. Nova Scotia and this unique unicycle race will be brought to the desktops of the world. On-line spectators in the pubs of the UK, for example, could follow their teams as they battle unicyclists from the USA, New Zealand, Singapore and South Korea. Britech engineers and scientists are currently working to develop an engaging on-line experience.

Britech is a member of the Synova Group of companies. They have extensive experience in mobility and GIS technologies.
