[NFBofSC] What's New in Seeing AI Version 4.0: Features For LiDAR-capable Devices And Other Improvements

[Steve Cook]

Version 4.0

. The new World channel, available on devices with a LiDAR scanner running
iOS 14, enables you to explore an unfamiliar space in 3D, using spatial
audio. When wearing headphones, you will hear objects around you announced
from their location in the room. You can also find a particular object by
placing an audio beacon on it. We are keen to hear your feedback on this
early experiment, and invite you to work with us as we explore this new area
together with the community.

. On iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max, the haptic proximity sensor enables you to
point the LiDAR scanner and feel the distance to things around you

. The main screen has been visually redesigned to improve contrast and widen
the camera's field of view

. Improvements to image descriptions on the Scene channel, and when browsing
photos on your phone

. Improved text recognition accuracy on the Document channel

. Seeing AI is now available in seven additional languages: Czech, Danish,
Finnish, Greek, Hungarian, Polish, and Swedish

. Plus, various bug fixes under the hood
