BlindSquare in 1 minute




BlindSquare is an augmented reality GPS application for the blind.
It obtains information about the surrounding environment from FourSquare and Open Street Maps. It's algorithms enables it to determine the most relevant information, and then voices it out using high quality speech synthesis. For example, "What's the most popular café within 200 meters radius?"
If you are riding a bus, it will report your location, e.g. the next bus stop or the next street crossing.
