Hello fellow fraternity.
Microsoft Soundscape uses 3D audio technology to enhance your
awareness of what is around you, and thereby help you get around and
explore your surroundings.
Soundscape will place audio cues and labels in 3D space such that they
sound like they are coming from the direction of the points of
interest, parks,
roads and other features in your surroundings.
You will need a pair of stereo headsets that you feel comfortable
wearing outdoors. For example, bone conduction headsets, Apple AirPods
and in-ear open
headphones have proven to work well.
Soundscape is designed to live in the background and provide you with
effortless ambient awareness. Therefore, feel free to use it in
conjunction with
other apps such as podcasts, audio books, email and even GPS navigation.
although you can also religh on it
Key features:
- As you walk, Soundscape will automatically call out the key points
of interest, roads and intersections that you pass. These can be
adjusted and turned
on and off.
- An audio beacon can be placed on a point of interest, and you will
hear it as you move around. You can place an audio beacon on a point
of interest that
you would like to track such as your destination, a point to return to
or a landmark you are familiar with.
- “My location” describes your current location and the direction you are
facing
- “Around me” describes nearby points of interest in each of the four
cardinal directions, helping with orientation. Try this out when
getting off a bus
or leaving a train station.
- “Ahead of me” describes points of interest in front of you, for
example when walking down the street.
This App has added me more confidence while using my whitecane
crossing highways, different streets and navigating compass and also
supermarket.
I hope you enjoy the experience. I believe that this kind of
technology offers a new way to relate to the environment around you
and I can’t wait to
hear what you make of it as Nairobians and other towns in Kenya.
its currently for iPhone users IOS 10 and above.
I hope to here from our chair if he can navigate the UON compass with
it!
all the best.
