Fraunhofer IIS to Showcase at CES 2013


Nov 15, 2012 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Fraunhofer IIS, a source for audio and multimedia technologies, will showcase its Full-HD Voice codec, Enhanced Low Delay AAC (AAC-ELD), at CES 2013.

In a release, the Company noted that the AAC-ELD codec natively supports iOS and Android.

"From mobile phones to TVs, consumers expect the highest audio quality from their entertainment experiences. There is no reason the expectations for VoIP communication should be any different," said Harald Popp, head of the Multimedia Realtime Systems department at Fraunhofer IIS. "By providing developers direct, native access to the best codecs to deliver Full-HD Voice VoIP apps, consumers can expect the best quality possible." Fraunhofer's Full-HD Voice technology provides CD-like audio quality for professional video conferencing systems, as well as consumer video telephony applications, such as apple FaceTime.



App developers can access the natively-integrated AAC-ELD codec through the Fraunhofer FDK Codec Library in Android since version 4.1 and in iOS since version 4.0 as well as in OSX, allowing cross-platform deployment of Full-HD Voice.
