Heare

Do you like walking on the beach? Or to smell the air in a heathland? Have you never been able to walk alone because you have low vision or no vision at all and there aren’t any pavements or roads to walk on where you want to go? Try HeareApp. This app starts where the old navigation apps stop.

HeareApp is an application that makes it possible to go for a walk anywhere in the world. By using 3D sound you get directions by using your ears. Walking was never that easy.

Start planning routes on heareapp.com and share them with your friends on social media! Load the code in your iPhone, put in your earphones and start walking. During the walk you only need your GPS connection so you don’t need internet access.

The app uses our 3D Augmented Reality Audio technology. Think of interactive audio guides, tours and games accessible for the visual impaired. Visit http://www.heareapp.com for more information.

Note: The app works on iPhone 3gs. But it works faster on newer iPhone models. It also works on ipad 2 and 3 with wi-fi + 3G.

SPECIAL FEATURES:

++ Visual impaired people can use Heare
++ Uses actual GPS information
++ Extremely accurate tracking algorithm provided by iPhone
++ Walk anywhere you want, even off-the-road

Note: When using the compass, stay clear of large iron or magnetic surfaces. They could distort the compass reading. The GPS signal can be disturbed by high buildings, trees and atmospheric circumstances.
