Sounds from places

a startup idea shared by Kazunori Seki on 04/09/2012

When I look at a map at home, I want to hear some sounds which represent the place, and then look around to listen to. On the other hand, when I go to places like huge mall or public spaces, I want to hear some personalized selective sounds or announcement lead me to preferable spot. D-land has very simplified one. If geo tagged personal voice assistant like Siri is available, audio guide will be available anywhere other than museum. Acoustic/digital artificial sound source and its personalized arbitration system can be made. Artificial noise on electric vehicle also be included.

Interactive package tour guide (1)

A B2B opportunity is for travel agents promoting their packaged tour. G-map or GEarth based tour showcase attracts those companies, while expanding travel bloggers presentation capability and crowd sourced sound collection.

Can we have collaborative mind map here?
14 months ago by Michal Hudeček
I see your link among Similar projects. Does it mean it's working now? You can add link to collaborative mind map as well. IdeasWatch itself doesn't have such feature. Let me know any suggestions regarding IdeasWatch;)

I guess it's metaphor of focus group and closed, I'd like to have much flexible linking toward outside reference. Let me see what others do.

Panoramio is the model of the sound scape map (1)
14 months ago by Kazunori Seki
Mouse over to play a sound file is the easiest implementation probably done somewhere already. The sound file or entity should have a effective range. If the chat is about a small place like shop or mall, it would be small but for that region, it would be larger. There might be some universal descriptive format already.
