👥 Hundreds of people came together to exchange insights with consortium members, test out the Möbius Player's binaural audio technology, and interact with the Möbius totem. This technology creates a more life-like listening experience for audiobooks and will be a part of the Möbius book experience. With the Möbius app, users will be able to enjoy immersive reading with text+binaural audio and social interaction features. ⁠
