Program Purpose:

3-Dimensional sound reproduction can be used to enhance the intelligibility and user experience of multi-voicex000D
remote collaboration systems and provide superior user experience for audio and multi-media streaming.x000D
Effective 3-Dimensional sound reproduction out of loudspeakers requires effective loudspeaker crosstalkx000D
cancellation. In mobile phone and laptop environments this is very difficult to achieve due to geometricx000D
challenges such as narrow stereo separation, early reflections and variations in listener position.x000D
ROK Software seeks innovation to overcome these challenges, with the goal of commercializing a solution forx000D
use within remote conferencing and other team collaboration products and related markets that will yieldx000D
greater intelligibility and superior user experience.
