This directional hypersonic speaker for museums focuses sound in a straight beam. Only visitors standing in its way can hear audio content, without disturbing others nearby.
Add sound to displays, provide parallel sound experiences
A patented circular arrangement of emission points allows best-in-class sound localisation, and advanced sound processing maximises sound intelligibility even on low volume. Suitable for voice & music.
The sound is targeting your ears as you are in a sound bubble, at the same time people around you can hear absolutely nothing, and you hear as if a person talks straight in your ear, this is great. A very good idea allowing to practice social distancing.

Since the loudspeaker, we hadn't invented much, using headphones creates limits, and this is a real technological breakthrough, it is a complex tech and it meets current needs.

In the context of current health crisis, we had to stop the use of headphones, which were used to provide access to educational content in a significant number of spaces in the museum. Akoustic Arts technology has allowed us to reopen our exhibition rooms and provide content, while retaining the advantages of headphones: confidentiality, but without its flaws: physical contact.

The installation of Akoustic Arts sound showers on the entire platform made it possible to reduce by 100% the risk of being too close to the edge of the platform by when trains arrive by delivering a targeted alert message encouraging travelers to move back.
The confidential intercom is very interesting in particular at the level of the hospital counters to ensure confidentiality. Better acoustics allow peaceful exchanges between interlocutors by reducing tensions linked to misunderstandings.
With a computing capacity of 2.4 billion operations per second, we have integrated patented digital signal processing modules to make the sound as clear and loud as possible with zero background noise.
Multiple functions
Noisy space? Turn boost mode on. Quiet space? Activate the presence detector that stops audio broadcast when a person leaves the targeted area. For voice content, activate the voice mode to enhance speech intelligibility.
Easy to install
As a compact 260 x 260 x 32 mm and 1 kg slim square body with Vesa 100, Directional Speaker B fits perfectly even the most complex integration challenges. Choose your audio source (either 3.5mm balanced or unbalanced jack, or optical cable) then play your connected audio. In case you are planning to use multiple speakers - link them up using the optical output instead of using plenty of cables.
We have arranged the emission points circularly to provide optimal sound directionality even in noisy surroundings. This patented technology creates a sound beam. Due to sound directivity, it is possible to keep the conversations confidential.
