Pioneering Parental Controls Technology for MoviesDid you know that kids and teens can hear sound frequencies that adults can't?
For instance, a 17,000 Hz sound frequency would be barely noticeable or completely imperceptible to most adults but easily heard by children.
SonicBuzz is a patents-pending Extension that utilizes this age-driven difference in hearing ability to deter kids from viewing off-limits movie content.
Here's how it works: Parents select movies that they wish to allow (e.g. all G-rated movies). SonicBuzz plays a high-frequency sound alongside movie content that is restricted.
The effect is stunning! Kids and teens hear disruptive buzzing throughout a restricted movie while adults can watch the very same movie without ever hearing a single buzz.
SonicBuzz currently supports Netflix.
