Auracast Bluetooth Audio Poised to Revolutionize Hearing & Listening Experience for Millions

Описание: Nick Hunn, the analyst who coined the term 'hearable', sits down with Dave Kemp to talk about Auracast™ Bluetooth broadcast audio and the significant implications it will have for people with hearing loss, as well as the general public once the technology becomes widely available.

Auracast™ broadcast audio enables an audio transmitter, such as a smartphone, laptop, television, or public address system to broadcast audio to an unlimited number of nearby Bluetooth audio receivers, including speakers, earbuds, or hearing devices.

For those interested in learning more about the inner workings of the specifications, Nick Hunn recently released a new book, “Introducing Bluetooth LE Audio”, which is available in hard copy from Amazon, or a free electronic copy can be obtained from the Bluetooth SIG at https://www.bluetooth.com/le-audio-book/
