New APEI Webinar Addresses the Use of Digital Twins for Architecting and Designing Audio Devices

The AES Audio Product Education Institute (APEI) promotes a new webinar series on its Modeling and Measurement education pillar to explore the use of Digital Twins as a new simulation-driven audio architecture design. With audio development of increasingly sophisticated audio products now starting almost always with the creation of digital models, the possibilities to adjust practices between different teams are driving new audio product development practices.

Goertek has unveiled a new earbud reference design to help manufacturers looking to implement Qualcomm Snapdragon Sound technology speed their time to market. Powered by the Qualcomm QCC5141 Bluetooth Audio SoC, the Rox reference design is optimized for use in TWS earbuds and hearables and is designed to deliver high-resolution music, crystal-clear voice calls, and lag-free gaming — with superior connectivity and extended battery life.

CUI Devices’ Audio Group announced the addition of waterproof enclosed speakers to its CES product family. Carrying IP67 ratings, these enclosed speakers feature sound pressure levels (SPLs) from 89 to 106 dB at 10 cm and resonance frequencies from 680 to 1700 Hz. Thanks to their enclosed speaker design and IP67 ratings, the CES series offer engineers a turnkey solution fully optimized for sound quality and simplified design integration in applications that may be subject to moisture and environmental contaminants.
