StreamUnlimited Partners with Summit Semiconductor to Enable Wireless Multi-Channel Audio Support for Chromecast Built-in Modules
StreamUnlimited, a provider of software solutions and modules for
connected audio products, is announcing a partnership with Summit
Semiconductor to support home theater and mobile applications.
StreamUnlimited will port Summit Semiconductor's Wi-Fi compliant
software for multichannel audio to the Stream770 and Stream810
Chromecast built-in modules.
The technology from Summit Semiconductor will enable the StreamUnlimited
Wi-Fi based modules to support up to a full 7.1 home theater solution
with fixed low latency for video and audio synchronization, while
maintaining tight speaker synchronization and eliminating sound field
distortion. Both StreamUnlimited modules are pin-compatible for product
family development, and feature StreamSDK, the world's richest streaming
audio software stack. Stream810 targets the premium segment, while
Stream770 addresses the mainstream market with the lowest cost solution
capable of powering Chromecast built-in and voice. The flexibility of
the StreamUnlimited product portfolio provides customers with the best
possible choices in terms of performance and price. Many key OEM and ODM
partners have also undertaken StreamSDK training and can support brand
customers in developing products quickly and efficiently.
"Consumers are demanding high-quality home theater audio that is easy to
set up and complements today's high definition televisions and
multichannel content," said Frits Wittgrefe, president of
StreamUnlimited. "We are excited about the new technology from Summit
Semiconductor and the integration plans to enable our Chromecast
built-in modules to support home theate, as well as multi-room
applications and voice technology."
"Stream Unlimited has been a longtime supporter of Summit Semiconductor
and has a proven track record of successfully delivering wireless audio
products to key brands," said Tony Parker, vice president of marketing
for Summit Semiconductor. "Extending our existing partnership to port
our Wi-Fi compliant home theater technology to their modules is a
welcomed next step in our relationship, but more importantly will reduce
customer integration risk and time to market."
