Tactone
Intelligent 3D audio navigation for inclusive buildings.
What it was
Buildings are navigable if you can see them. For someone who can't, a building is a memorised route, and any change to it — a moved desk, a closed corridor — turns a routine walk into a hazard. Tactone answered that with spatial audio: sound that tells you where things are rather than reading directions at you.
