Thanks for your interest in CenceMe, your Seventh Sense! CenceMe helps you to remain connected to your friends running CenceMe on their iPhone or iPod Touch on the move. Using advanced machine learning techniques, CenceMe software infers human presence information based on iPhone™ sensors, for example, activity, being in a conversation, noise level, location. CenceMe also shows you the weather condition of your location as well as of your friends' place. Soon, CenceMe will even be able to determine if a person is listening to music or dancing at a party. This presence can be gathered and shared with your social circle via Facebook™**, MySpace™***, Twitter, and CenceMe Web without any extra effort. CenceMe presence can be viewed on the iPhone™ as well. Beyond detection and sharing, CenceMe software also allows you to customize how your presence information is displayed, by allowing you to assign personalized presence Icons and text to your presence.
CenceMe is easy to install and fun to play with. Give it a try today!
