4 W e d n e sd a y, Ja n u a ry 8 , 2 0 1 4 FLIPSQUARE: THE NEW APP FROM PETROS MEDIA In a smartphone gaming market that can sometimes seem oversaturated with noise and clutter, Petros Media's newest project, FlipSquare, is set to revolutionize the gaming world. Billed as "the smart game for the smart phone," FlipSquare is an addictive gaming app. "There's simply nothing else like it," said Petros President, John Johnson. "You play this game for a minute and you're hooked. Our goal with FlipSquare was to develop an addicting puzzle game that doesn't leave the user candy-sick. We've hit one out of the park with this app." So far the app has been universally received with rave reviews. The success of FlipSquare is due not only to the unique game concept, but the overall user experience and design of the app. Now available only on the iOS platform, FlipSquare was designed with iOS 7 in mind. Taking full advantage of parallax graphics and showcasing a style that is simple and beautiful, FlipSquare is set apart from its competitors. "There's real beauty in simplicity," UCLEAR OFFERS CUSTOMIZED ACOUSTICAL SOUND FOR THE HEARING IMPAIRED The Bluetooth "Tune to Fit" currently on display at the UCLEAR booth is an new product designed to isolate the specific hearing frequencies that people struggle with and customize their own personal hearing preferences based upon a simple audio test. The technology is based upon expansive experience with noise cancellation and adaptive beam forming technology products in extreme sporting conditions. The technology was designed to further provide optimized listening for individuals that suffer from hearing losses and improve their personal listening experience for work or play. Typically, by age 40, people experience hearing loss of five to 10 decibels, and that increases with age. Most people overcompensate for hearing loss by increasing traditional volume controls, which can damage their hearing for other frequencies for which they do not suffer from hearing losses. "Tune to Fit" solves this dilemma by allowing the consumer to run a simple software application on their phone through the "Tune to Fit" Bluetooth device that records C o n su m e r Ele c tro n ic s D a ily N e ws Eve n in g Extra noted the app's lead designer, Matt Sich. "We didn't want to design a game that was convoluted and noisy. FlipSquare is clean and natural; the user experience is second to none." Incorporated in 2012, Petros Media is a company with small-town roots that has enjoyed success from the development of several ground-breaking apps. This year will be the company's premier appearance at the Consumer Electronics Show, where they'll be featured among other emerging tech companies in Eureka Park.
