It assists the visually impaired to walk alone.

NaviRec User's Manual

When you choose route guidance, it plays recordings according to the positions of the previously made GPS marks.
For example, the recording "McDonalds is on the right side" is played when you come near McDonalds. You can mark positions and it will announce them with sound and voice when you pass by those marked positions. If you mark a corner where you have to turn at, you will never pass that corner without noticing it. If you ask for the current position while keeping the iPhone in horizontal direction, it will announce the point of the compass and the distance until the nearest marked position in the direction pointed with the iPhone. If you ask for the current position keeping the iPhone vertically, it will announce the information on the nearest mark, independently of point of the compass. You can create more than one route and you can share route information with others via Dropbox. We recommend you to use bone-conduction headphones that don't cover your years to be able to hear both the sounds of the environment around you and the announcements played by this application.
