A futuristic new device will beam sounds directly into your head without any need whatsoever for headphones, ear buds or brain implants.
A very clever – if not a little unnerving – new piece of futuristic audio technology has been revealed by Tel Aviv based Noveto Systems, which will allow people to listen to music, play loud computer games, watch movies and get navigation directions, all without disturbing other people.
It’s believed this device, named SoundBeamer 1.0, will have many practical uses in our everyday lives, for example, allowing workers to listen to their favourite songs or take conference calls at the office, without disturbing those around them.
You can check out the demo for yourself below:
According to AP, the astonishing technology uses a 3D sensing module, locating and tracking the position of the ear by sending audio via ultrasonic waves to ‘create sound pockets’ right by the listener’s ears.
The user can then hear sound in stereo or in a spatial 3-D mode which creates 360 degree sound around them.
