Testing GPS in New York and Ellen's Stardust diner audio



We were testing the soon-to-be-released version of the Seeing Eye GPS among the tall buildings of New York's Time Square. We navigated to the Jacob's theater to see the musical called, Once. We hit the famous Carnegie Deli, Bottega Del Vino near Central Park, the Apple Store on 59th and 5th Avenue, several hotels, a great breakfast spot on 6th Avenue and 55th and Ellen's Stardust diner with singing waiters. Listen to the Stardust Audio.  

The multi-path signals make any GPS system a bit crazy but with patience and double checking, the app helped us find our way and to know what was along our route. All the while, Tank the Seeing Eye dog deftly navigated the throngs of people on the streets, many not looking where they were going.
