Gaze

The app will enable you to use your phone while you are walking or doing something that requires you to be watchful of your ever changing surroundings. Various image filters along with camera flash can be used to compensate for changing ambient lighting conditions. The app can also save camera captures periodically and continues to run even when the screen is off, thus your device can be used as a dash-cam or a portable surveillance device.
