Nexum Promotes AERO Earbuds and Auracast Bundles on Kickstarter

Taiwanese audio company Nexum wants to anticipate the benefits of next-generation Bluetooth LE Audio technology and is promoting its AERO TWS earbuds as one of the first solutions on the market to harness the power of Auracast. Using an Airoha AB1565 chipset, Nexum is now promoting a Kickstarter campaign for the AERO earbuds, also sold bundled with the company's VOCE Auracast adapter and transmitter, which can be retrofitted to any audio device with a USB-C or 3.5mm aux output. One way to enjoy the benefits of Auracast before it becomes widely adopted.

Packetcraft has enabled the first commercially-available Auracast audio broadcaster system for professional deployment in public spaces. Announced at ISE 2024, Listen Technologies and Ampetronic have provided the first-to-market Auracast Audio Broadcast Device that is able to turn a public speaking space into a multi-access and hearing-assistance-tech enabled arena. The solution is enabled by Packetcraft's Bluetooth Auracast software.

Listen Technologies, a provider of advanced wireless listening solutions for 25 years, working with audio induction loop systems specialist Ampetronic, demonstrated a complete assistive listening system using Bluetooth LE Audio and Auracast broadcast technology at the ISE 2024 show in Barcelona. The two companies, in direct cooperation with the Bluetooth SIG, hosted a press conference to preview and promote the solution, which is expected to generate a new significant opportunity for system integrators.
