ASUS exclusive technology that visualizes and enhances in-game sounds, giving
you a vital edge in first-person shooters.
Fire up your favorite game and Sonic Radar Pro displays a radar' HUD
(heads-up display) that pinpoints in-game actions relative to your position, so
you'll know exactly where you are on the battlefield and what's happening around
you!
Multiple radar-enhancers can be enabled in order to visualize and boost
specific sounds such as footsteps, gunshots, and call-outs. Sounds are plotted
on the 360-degree HUD, even when there's no clear line of sight, so invisibility
is no barrier to pinpointing opponents, giving you a distinct advantage over
other players!

customizable, so you can make it work just the way you want, with whatever game
you want!
