Locatone is a service developed by Sony Corporation that allows you to enjoy Sound AR™ (a new sound experience that mixes the sounds of the virtual world with the real world). When you start a tour and visit a specific spot on the map, you will automatically hear audio and music based on your location. By walking around the city while listening to the sounds, you can discover new attractions and ways to enjoy the city. You can enjoy it with your own earphones or headphones, but if you use Sony's completely wireless headphones "LinkBuds" series, you can naturally layer the sound from the earphones with the surrounding sounds.

*"Sound AR" and "Locatone" are trademarks of Sony Group Corporation or its affiliated companies.

After downloading Locatone, you can start from anywhere in the castle town of Ozu.

Projection mapping is placed all over the castle town of Ozu Castle. Please visit all the spots and enjoy the Ozu original sound that you can get at the end.
