Extension summary

Did 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.

We are in beta mode and would greatly appreciate feedback: info At jammrlabs.com.
