Technology to hear sound without earphones coming out?

If there is any technology that can deliver sound to an individual without being heard by others without headphones or earphones? Soundbeamer, developed by Israeli startup Noveto Systems, uses its own algorithms and transducers to create sound pockets with ultrasonic waves next to the target user’s ear. That you can only hear the sound to that person through this sound pocket. Moreover, it is okay to move around while playing the game because it can track users.

This technique is divided into two types in shape. One is the Sound Beamer 1.0, which includes other devices and the other is a standalone small speaker. The latter is expected to be released in December 2021.

Listening to your favorite music or playing games does not bother people around you. Moreover, since the ears are not covered with headphones, etc., the surrounding sound is well heard. If you can hear the sound you want to hear without wearing anything in your ears, it’s more comfortable than earphones and without the hassle of charging like an AirPod. You don’t even have to worry about it.

However, there are also concerns about abuse of technology. Until now, the premise was that the person who wanted to hear the talking was only listening to himself. However, being able to hear sounds without a device could mean that someone could force an unfamiliar person to secretly hear a sound. I don’t know if it’s used as a joke, but it can be exploited for certain attacks.

Of course, Christophe Ramstein, CEO of Nebeto Systems, emphasizes that the technology is as disruptive as what I felt when I first used the iPod. You can find more information about Nebeto Systems here .
