Fraunhofer IIS will showcase the latest audio technology at the Consumer Electronics Show

Fraunhofer IIS will be unveiled at CES 2013 to showcase its latest audio technologies in streaming, broadcasting and communications. Fraunhofer IIS, an audio and multimedia technology research institute, will showcase its streaming, broadcasting and communications fields at the 2013 Consumer Electronics Show The latest audio technology.

Fraunhofer IIS demonstrations at CES will include:

Experience stunning 5.1 surround sound on Android phones

The Android system has provided inherent support for Fraunhofer's latest software since version 4.1, including a multi-functional high-efficiency AAC (HE-AAC) audio codec that supports multi-channel audio. When an Android phone is connected to a home theater system, it can become a true multimedia content delivery platform and can provide high-quality stereo and 5.1 surround sound. At that time, Fraunhofer will demonstrate how end users can easily integrate Android phones into home applications, and how program developers and streaming service providers can easily benefit from the Fraunhofer audio codec software that comes with Android phones.

Using HE-AAC audio codec to realize DASH streaming

HE-AAC is the mainstream audio codec in the global broadcast and streaming media applications. It is widely used in a large number of commercial solutions and has been deployed in more than 5 billion devices. Since HE-AAC can simultaneously satisfy audio efficiency, high-quality audio, and support for specific audio metadata, it also naturally becomes the perfect audio solution for new adaptive streaming standards such as MPEG-DASH, HLS, Smooth Streaming, etc. . From wired stereo with wired broadband as low as 24kbit / s bit rate to high-quality surround audio with bit rate from 64 to 320kbit / s, HE-AAC can provide the best streaming media experience.

Together with BuyDRM, Fraunhofer IIS will demonstrate the first surround sound player based on the Android operating system and featuring MPEG-DASH and PlayReady. This allows HBO Europe to safely transfer streaming content on HBO GO to users ’homes via Android phones.

Full HD voice brings the best sound quality for VoIP applications

As the only widely adopted full HD voice codec, Enhanced Low Delay AAC (AAC-ELD) provides CD-like sound quality for an unparalleled communication experience without sound quality damage. AAC-ELD improves the call quality of fixed and mobile phones to the same level we can experience on other digital media, thus paving the way for smart TV to become the main communication device for home use.

App developers can easily obtain the AAC-ELD codec integrated in leading mobile operating systems such as Android and iOS. This laid the foundation for the development of full HD voice VoIP applications, so that a natural communication experience like a conversation in the same room can be achieved. Fraunhofer will demonstrate how application developers can easily integrate Full HD voice and AAC-ELD to enhance the IP communication experience.

Voice enhancement function allows users to control audio balance according to personal preferences

The industry's award-winning voice enhancement technology can help TV viewers and radio listeners change the balance between ambient noise and voice according to their preferences. Television and radio broadcasting often reduce the intelligibility of speech because of the need to balance background music and sound effects, as well as the effects of voice and music, which has also received complaints from many viewers and listeners. This is especially true for listeners or audiences with hearing impairments or non-native speakers. The voice enhancement function enables the audience to control the audio and set the volume of personal voice and dialogue. Fraunhofer will demonstrate how to achieve this level of audio control at low bit rates in broadcasting.

Sonnox Fraunhofer Pro-Codec codec plug-in (second version) supports real-time audition and "Mastered for iTunes" program

The award-winning Sonnox Fraunhofer Pro-Codec codec plug-in enables mixing and mastering engineers to audition 5 codecs in real time in a digital audio workbench environment to generate the best mix and achieve multiple simultaneous The encoding of the format. In addition, it comes with a time-saving and intuitive tool for the "Mastered for iTunes" program, which supports real-time audition, crop detection and proofreading during mixing. Fraunhofer will demonstrate how the Pro-Codec codec runs on all of Fraunhofer's major MPEG audio codecs (including MPEG Surround and HE-AAC multi-channel), providing superior audio quality for surround broadcast and streaming media. At that time, the audience can also see the consumer version of the plug-in coming in advance.

Famous experts from Fraunhofer IIS will also visit booth 20848 in the South Hall of CES 1 to discuss industry trends and answer questions about the latest audio innovations.
