"The most significant driver for mobile phone growth and profitability is expanded purchase of multimedia content," stated Henry R. Mandell, chief executive officer of Spatializer Audio Laboratories, Inc. "Quality content sells. Quite simply, Spatializer ((environ)) 3G makes quality content. Compressed Internet audio, games, polyphonic ring tones, FM radio, and terrestrial or satellite television, become more life-like, expressive and entertaining when processed with the Spatializer ((environ)) 3G mobile audio engine."
The new Spatializer ((environ)) 3G audio engine, now available in a wide array of processors from Texas Instruments, Sigmatel or ARM 9(TM) architecture, or in software including Java(TM) and Brew(TM) provides a comprehensive, yet scaleable feature set that deliver:
Richer and distinct stereo .... Spatializer ((environ)) 3G helps overcome the limitations of form factor and enhances the stereo information in the source material by providing the perception of a richer, broader and immersive acoustic image from closely spaced micro-speakers.
Immersive games on the go .... both online and offline, is another growth driver for next-generation mobile devices. We've added true, multi-channel 3D positional audio processing to Spatializer ((environ)) 3G to deliver the kind of arcade or home gaming platform quality entertainment that developers, system operators and consumers are looking for.
An immersive personal audio sphere .... When headphones and ear buds are used to listen to audio content on multimedia handsets, Spatializer ((environ)) 3G uses innovative psycho-acoustic processing techniques to deliver a much more natural, immersive listening experience while reducing common listener fatigue for any sized headphone.
Great bass frequencies .... Spatializer ((environ)) 3G also features our psycho-acoustic bass-boost technology that provides a deeper, richer bass experience for small headphones and ear buds with inherently limited low end frequency response.
Internet audio brought to life .... MP3 and other compressed audio techniques often rob the source material of life and definition, but not any more. Our patent-pending enhancement and enlivening technology makes Internet audio files come to live, with crisp clarity and real-life presence.
Maximized listening experience .... Spatializer ((environ)) 3G makes dynamic range compression mobile. The scalable and adjustable feature helps prevent over-driving micro-speakers by efficiently preventing processed signals from clipping or saturating.
Sparkling dialogue .... through our latest environmental noise reduction technology that helps provide enhanced speech comprehension to 3G handset users. During conversations in noisy environments, real-time digital signal analysis and processing is applied to the receive side of handsets, thereby eliminating unwanted background noise.
