NEOH seems to be quite similar to the "Rondo" from Dysonics:http://dysonics.com/
The Rondo is a small device that can be attached to any headphone and provides head tracking. The rest of the product is a software player (RAPPR) that applies the head tracking info and communicates to Rondo via Bluetooth. So far as I know, its MacOS only. Dysonics also has a microphone array http://dysonics.com/our-technology/ I haven't yet heard either of these products, but I intend to!

They could refer to anything specific "above" 5.1/7.1, what they avoided. They could maybe have mentioned Ambisonics, but most people never heard about. Therefore "3D audio formats" and "immersive". They could connect the headphones to a (binaural...) Mpeg-H 3DA decoder, but same story here: The potential customers probably never have heard of "Mpeg 3DA". The music industry or what remains doesn't know a lot if anything, etc. In fact: 3D Sound Labs should license (or obtain) a few real 3D audio recordings, for demonstrational purposes. (We are getting into marketing related questions.) Best, Stefan P.S.: Which gives some urgency to the question how to improve Ambisonics decoders, and especially binaural Ambisonics decoders. You know that I have said this again and again. Don't want to complain too much "in public", even if... ;-) P.S. 2: "You have been living in a flat dream-world, Neoh..." :-D <delurks>What really irks me are the binaural conference services, like BT+Dolby Voice or Voxeet. They pitch their service as being 3D audio, but they lack any concept of the vertical dimension. When I call them on that matter I get accused of being too fussy. In reality, the "3D" aspect of their marketing is really just something sweet to attract large enterprise or VC flies. </delurks> Michael Graves mgra...@mstvp.com http://www.mgraves.org o(713) 861-4005 c(713) 201-1262 sip:mgra...@mjg.onsip.com skype mjgraves -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
