Love the fact that the guy was wearing headphones...
And we thought they were crazy when ‘they’ said that they were hearing voices... Saw this tech ‘whispered’ about 20 years ago.. and just disappeared.. wondered about the impact on clubs, parties, concerts... etc. No Noise.
It will be a game changer as it develops.. me think.
I wonder what the latency is like.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Back then, the context I saw it in had the potential use cases in things like vending machines that could address you as you walked in front of them, and other big brother type direct advertising. This would be way better, but I highly doubt it's going to work well for stereo imaging, not to mention their magic graphic where it still works while your head is turning away from the source, like there's a magic audio force bubble stuck to your head. Plus in a confined area nothing is to stop it from hitting the far wall and refracting the audio.
Noise cancelling on a per person basis would be amazing. So you could stop certain people from hearing. I could certainly imagine some uses for this where if you suspected someone was eavesdropping you could either introduce replacement sounds or cancel the sound entirely.
Yeah, HSS was on magazine covers twenty years ago. Demoed in Minority Report. Talking Coke machines, killer sound cannons. Totally dangerous and invasive. Thank you science. once again you have made our lives better. No more headphones!
Is it actually putting it in your head?
Seems like it it tracking your head and creating some super-localized sound bubble around your head.
Whatever the case, I can’t really understand how they are focusing sound, or making it drop of so abruptly outside of the bubble.
Pretty weird and cool.
No, I think it somehow focusses the sound waves to where you are. So the sound exists in that spot, but outside it the waves are indistinct somehow. Maybe like 2 different waves that cancel out except for a certain spot where they reinforce.
I don't really know how, but I'm certain it's sending stuff to your ears, not directly into your brain!
Haha, that's so nostalgic. Remembered making this a few years ago in college. Fun times. Glad to see the technology made it mainstream.
It's more of a sound beam. Sound is emitted from the speakers towards the target direction. Works based on the principle of amplitude modulation.
Sound is sent at a frequency higher than what humans can hear. But because of the interaction of two waveforms through a parametric region (also known as air), the frequency is cancelled to what we can hear.
Source: Did this in a final project at University.
Cool concept! And mind the bats!
But this has nothing to do with putting sound in your head and skipping the ears, right?
Yeah, it's not really about putting sound in your head. It's more of a special speaker emitting sound in one direction.
Found the video I did with my group. Disclaimer: Was a group effort, in more ways than one.

I think I get it.
Did reflected waves mess with the results much?
Or were they altered enough on the return to not affect the target region significantly?
I thought this was going to be taking about DMT or Psilocybin. 🤪
Reflection was a challenge. We did use low cost parts so that may have been a factor.
I’d say there’s a lot more value in the application when you’re close to the speaker than sending a beam of sound 50ft away. Because if someone stands in between you and the target, the target wouldn’t hear much, if anything at all.
