Designed with care for the visually impaired and blind, Ping Path leverages the power of spatial audio, AI, LiDAR technology, and Siri to create an intuitive experience. Effortless experience: With our innovative path-finding feature, PingPath guides you to avoid obstacles and locate objects. Seamlessly hear objects in rooms, around obstacles, and towards your desired destination, whether you're at home, in the office, or exploring a new place. This is an early experimental feature that shouldn't be used without someone to assist with navigation. Siri Integration: PingPath is integrated with Siri for even easier navigation. Just say "Ping Path to the door" or "Hey Siri, PingPath around me" and the app will do the rest. Spatial Audio: With an added layer of situational awareness, PingPath uses spatial audio to guide you in a natural and intuitive way. Experience your surroundings like never before. Captioning + Querying: Our captioning feature describes your surroundings, giving you a clearer picture of the world around you. Querying empowers you to ask questions about your environment. LiDAR Compatibility: Optimized for LiDAR enabled phones, Ping Path offers you detailed and precise navigation. The app also works with standard cameras, ensuring no one is left behind. At PingPath, we believe in empowering the visually impaired to hear their world with confidence and independence. Join us on this journey and experience the difference today.
