The latest Fraunhofer's audio processing suites and audio technologies will now be integrated into Flow DSP, Tymphany's own DSP platform and design framework. Tymphany says that its new headphone reference design excels with built-in IMU sensors and onboard DSP processing for zero-lag head-tracking and superior sound externalization.
Fraunhofer's Cingo restores the spatial impression of a natural sound field with minimal sound coloration, overcoming the limitations of traditional headphone playback. Processing it on wireless headphone DSPs ensures a consistent spatial audio experience across source devices and minimal motion-to-sound latency.
And outside of headphones, Tymphany will demonstrate how setting up a single smart speaker now opens the door to immersive experiences through codec-agnostic playback of many audio input formats and advanced upmix technologies. The reference spatial audio speaker combines Tymphany's acoustics with Fraunhofer's upHear DSP processing technology. Each speaker channel radiates with precision, optimized to perform best with Fraunhofer's upHear processing.
"Spatial audio in headphones is a regular customer demand today. We're proud to bring embedded dynamic spatial audio to everyday life together with a strong partner like Tymphany," says Adrian Lorenz, Product Manager Headphone Processing at Fraunhofer IIS.
Tymphany Peerless Flow DSP
Fraunhofer Cingo and Fraunhofer upHear easily integrate with Tymphany's Flow DSP, a software development platform with a library of algorithms and a user-friendly interface that eliminates the need for DSP coding, thus reducing time to market. The upHear Virtualizer transforms soundbars and smart speakers into audio powerhouses, providing an immersive sound field that extends beyond the loudspeakers. It supports all audio formats and can upmix legacy content for a faithful spatial recreation.
