I suspect it'll go nowhere. It isn't a new idea. Various companies have come up with such ultrasonic carrier systems before. There were various attempts to use such things to target PA announcements to individual people in railway stations and the like. Blighted by all kinds of real world problems caused by reflections and interference (apart from the fact that it isn't very hi-fi as the low carrier frequency restricts the usable bandwidth) they never live up to the hype..
Dogs might not enjoy the inaudible beams!
I agree that I don't think this is a working idea because how the heck can anything follow you around especially in your head without a device placed on your body close to your ears......there would need to be some extra device connected to you so that the sound beams could follow you around, or else there is no way it could work.
Yes indeed, talk about a solution looking for a problem!!
Itās their patented new āextra sensory perception laser beamā technology.
Either that, or it uses facial recognition to uniquely identify your ears in a crowded room!
LSD?
- anyone?
HomerJAU will hold off till it does ATMOS...We are brutal!
We are QQ!
Didnāt we just go through this with Yarra3D?
Iād never heard of the Yarra 3D but Iāve had a quick look and itās not really the same sort of thing. The Yarra does not use ultrasonic carrier beams. It is just a fairly ordinary soundbar but fitted with another in the long line of re-inventions of binaural crosstalk cancellation (like the old Carver Sonic Hologram Generator et al). They get rolled out every so often with great fanfare and a promise to change the world only to sink without trace (until someone else stumbles across the idea and thinks it will work this time)!
Head tracking is easy.
How so? Please explain
Thanks for the clarification. Of note, Yarra 3D was promoted as a wonder beamforming technology. I guess the only beamer we can trust right now is produced by BMW or, as Bob Marley once said, "it's my car mon; it stands for 'Bob Marley and the Wailers.'"
