About

WalkThruMusic

Features

Read full description

Using 6D Music's patented WalkThruMusic™ technology, this application invites the user to explore novel immersive music experiences combining hi-fidelity multipoint audio capture techniques and active listening via 6DoF spatial navigation. Built on Apple's ARKit for Augmented Reality experiences, the app allows the user to transform their surroundings into a "walkThru" performance venue, in which they can explore the music by moving among the instruments as they play. VR mode is also provided to let the "fingers do the walking". Designed to deliver a high-quality (binaural) listening experience, the use of headphones is strongly recommended.
