5. Technology exhibition and trial listening demonstration of the latest version of EXOFIELD out-of-head localization sound field processing technology
EXOFIELD is our unique sound processing technology, which makes it possible to measure and analyze the personal characteristics of individual users, such as the shapes of their ears and faces, as well as the acoustic characteristics of their audio speakers and listening rooms to perform audio signal processing that is optimally customized to individual users, delivered through out-of-head localization of sound images. Unlike conventional headphones with in-head localization of sound images, it enables reproduction of a sound field and localization of sound images achieved in a typical speaker listening experience even with headphones. This time we will exhibit technology used in the latest version of EXOFIELD, which supports multi-channel audio, and provide a brief trial listening demonstration based on simplified measurements.
