SensingU: The Destination

Navigate by sensing, not just looking.

Indoor wayfinding where the space responds to you. Ambient sound, a shake for context, and guidance in your language, so you spend less time staring at a screen and more time in the place you are in.

How it works

Finding your way indoors is still hard. So we let the building talk.

GPS does not reach inside buildings, and signs assume you already know where you are going. SensingU turns the space itself into the guide.

Every space gets an identity

Small Bluetooth beacons placed around the building each broadcast a unique ID.

Your phone listens

The app scans for nearby beacons and picks the strongest signal to work out where you are.

The space responds

Step into a new area and its ambient sound plays. Shake your phone to hear more about where you are.

Try it yourself

Walk through The GEAR. Hear it change.

This is a live preview of the app's real logic. Tap a beacon on the map to "walk" there, then shake the phone and pick a destination. Turn your sound on.

Every visitor

Welcome, in every language.

Welcome

Visitors to a building come from everywhere. Tap a language to see the guidance change.

Concept preview: multilingual guidance is in development. Translations are drafts.

Our aim: help people connect with the spaces they move through, not just get through them.
