3D Sound Labs Launches Challenge for 3D Spatial Audio Application Development

3D Sound Labs, the French startup and pioneer in 3D sound, is announcing a contest for mobile developers and calls on creative minds to shape the 3D sound smartphone apps of tomorrow. The 3D Dev Challenge summons participants to develop an innovative app (iOS or Android) using 3D audio. Contestants can send their projects until late September 2016. Winners will be awarded a total price of 10,000 euros.

Participants will receive an SDK for iOS and Android including Bluetooth drivers, 3D Audio libraries and a Unity Plugin, as well as a 3D Sound One Module. They will therefore meet all the conditions required to develop their application. From a music player in 3D audio, to 360° videos with integrated 3D Audio or video players for Android, all great apps are welcome.
 
3D Sound Labs was founded in January 2014 by entrepreneur Dimitri Singer, consumer electronics specialist Xavier Bonjour and Centrale-Supelec research engineer Renaud Séguier. 3D Sound Labs develops 3D Audio software technologies as well as hardware (headphones and motion tracking modules) to enable immersive and realistic audio experiences for movies, video games and virtual reality. They previously created the dedicated Smart 3D Audio Headphones and are currently focusing on their new 3D Sound One hardware module that can be fitted to existing headphones, while providing an SDK and freemium technology licensing program for third parties.
