Also was just wondering if anybody on list has received an email to say they were selected as a tester. Take care, Louise.

Sendero Group has been designing accessible GPS since 1994. Almost 20 years of user feedback and feature requests are behind the design of all Sendero GPS products. The accessible features in Seeing Eye GPS are only the beginning of what is yet to come as users help in evolving this first fully accessible GPS product for the iPhone. To participate in the preview, visit us at CSUN Booth 521 or reply to this email and we will send you a link for a Test Flight as soon as it is available. About Seeing Eye GPS Getting around independently is a function of good mobility tools like a guide dog or cane and good orientation tools like accessible GPS. Two pioneers in their fields, The Seeing Eye and Sendero Group have teamed up to provide a fully accessible turn-by-turn GPS iPhone app with all the normal navigation features plus features unique to blind users. * Instead of multiple layers of menus, the 3 important navigation elements are on the lower portion of every screen, Route, POIs and Location. * At intersections, the street name and your direction of travel are announced. * Intersections are described like 4-way with the clock face orientation of the streets. * There are 3 choices for POI data and 2 map sources. * Directions are configured appropriately for Pedestrian and vehicle routes including heads up when approaching a turn, the turn now indication, continue straight and where the subsequent turn is located. * When the user wanders off the route, it is automatically recalculated and updated turn information is announced. * Point your phone in a given direction to hear what is nearby with the LookAround Wand. * Nearby Points of interest and intersections are automatically announced.
