Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),. A new pair of Beats headphones is currently in full development within the Apple company, and according to some information that appeared today, they will have a special HomePod function. More precisely, we are talking about the beamforming technology, which is used in the smart speaker so that it realizes what type of environment it is in, and accordingly adjusts the way it emits sounds.
Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),. The new Beats headphones will benefit from a similar technology, the American company wanting to integrate beamforming into them, probably also using microphones to detect the environment in which the user is. When people are outside, the microphones integrated in Bets headsets can eliminate all ambient noises around the user, whether it's wind, traffic noise, etc., these being also eliminated from voice calls.
Apple. The new Beats Headphones with the SPECIAL HomePod Function
Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),. Apart from the elimination of ambient noises, the Beats headphones could even allow the use in any kind of "orientation" if you no longer have to make sure that you have the right headphone in the right ear, and the left one in the left one. This technology will save all users from the headaches related to the "correct" placement of the headphones on the ears, and since everyone has microphones, there would be no more problems with voice calls.
In one embodiment, a system for automatic right-left ear detection for a headphone comprises a first earcup and a second earcup that are identical. Each of the first and second earcups includes five microphones which are also used for purposes other than ear detection: a first microphone, a second microphone, a third microphone that is located inside each earcup facing the user's ear cavity, a fourth microphone located on a perimeter of each earcup in a triangle shape with the first and second microphones (top left, top right, and bottom middle), and a fifth microphone located above and to the left of the second microphone on a perimeter of each earcup when looking at an outside housing of each earcup. A processor […] may be used to perform voice beamforming towards the user's mouth to capture the user's speech and perform noise beamforming away from the user's mouth to capture environmental noise.
Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),. To be able to offer such technology, those from Apple should also implement a special processor in their headsets, but of course this is not a problem for the American company. Those from Apple have created special chips for a variety of products, so another one for Beats headphones will do nothing but provide an even better experience of using the products.
