navicchoro, the car navigator that speaks in 47 dialects
A free, browser-based GPS car navigator with route controls, turn-by-turn voice guidance, lane information, and Japanese regional dialect options.
Field notes
The homepage describes a PWA-style navigator that uses OpenStreetMap data, lets drivers compare up to several route characteristics, and stores settings on the device. Its most distinctive layer is the speech system: prompts cover turns, toll booths, merging, traffic, stops, and arrival greetings across all 47 prefectures. The page also documents estimated cash and ETC tolls, fuel costs, 28 facility categories, and approximately 260 mapped 3D landmarks.
