Airdrop Gaming is the first partner in Logitech’s new Start-Up for Good initiative, a pilot program dedicated to helping companies that are creating positive social impact bring their solutions to market. As part of the program, Airdrop Gaming leveraged Logitech’s mentorship, resources, and global platform to accelerate the development of its groundbreaking Audio Radar visual sound solution for the deaf and hard of hearing community.

“Partnering with Logitech G represents a significant step toward reshaping the gaming landscape for players who are deaf and hard of hearing,” said Timothy Murphy, CEO of Airdrop Gaming. “Their expertise and dedication to innovation helped us elevate our technology and expand our reach to more gamers.”

The patented Audio Radar system translates in-game audio events, such as footsteps or directional gunfire, into visual cues with six high-performance RGBW LED light bars, allowing you to see the direction of sounds. This technology enables players who are deaf and hard of hearing to engage with games on an even playing field. Logitech G, renowned for its high-performance gaming gear, shares Airdrop Gaming’s commitment to making gaming accessible to everyone.

“Gaming is at its best when it’s inclusive,” said Ujesh Desai, General Manager of Logitech G. “Our partnership with Airdrop Gaming aligns with our mission to empower all gamers with gear that lets them perform at their highest level. I love the Audio Radar solution and what it provides.”
