On March 21, Rokid, a breaker of the global sales record of consumer AR glasses, released the next-generation smart glasses Rokid Max, which presents more possibilities for consumer AR glasses in form, function, and scenarios.
In terms of acoustic experiences, Rokid Max is equipped with AAC Technologies’ first AR-specific super linear speakers to greatly improve portability and comfort when being worn. The more immersive and private surround sound brings users to a whole new level of acoustic experiences.
AAC Technologies’ AR-specific Super Linear Speaker Debuts as
Probably the Smallest and Lightest AR Speaker by Now
In the consumer application scenario, light weight, portability, and comfort are the main factors that affect users’ experiences in using AR glasses. As one of the key components of AR glasses, the ultra-miniature speakers, installed on the legs of glasses, will influence the weight and thickness of the device.
Differentiated from traditional circular speakers that are thicker, AAC’s first AR-specific super linear speakers come in a slimmer rectangular form, with an ultra-miniature size of 8 × 20 × 3mm and a weight of merely 1.45g, breaking the limit of speaker size for AR glasses. The design satisfies AR glasses’ demanding requirements for stacking space and helps with the industrial design of the device.
Probably being the smallest and lightest speakers for AR glasses so far, they help make Rokid Max lighter and more comfortable while further boosting the trend of slimmer AR devices.
The Support of Various Core Acoustic Technologies
Delivers More Immersive and Private Acoustic Experiences on AR Devices
The enrichment of the content ecosystem on consumer AR glasses raises a higher user demand for immersive audiovisual experiences while taking into account privacy protection and interference resistance in public areas. Enabled by multiple core acoustic technologies, AAC Technologies’ AR-specific super linear speakers can effectively improve Rokid Max’s audio performance in videos, games, and voice interaction.
Reproduce the original sound and construct a spatial sound field to deliver a genuine sound range
AAC Technologies’ AR-specific super linear speakers are the smallest speakers for AR glasses in the industry and the first ones to realize an excursion as small as 0.5mm. The proprietary technology increases the effective excursion of the diaphragm to raise the volume while also repairing artifacts, thus dramatically reducing low-frequency sensitivity and delivering better performance in low and medium frequencies.
When users watch movies, these miniature speakers can create a breath-taking sound field with powerful bass and full mids, delivering impressive sound rivaling that of a theater. The sound in voice interaction features better clarity and higher fidelity, thus creating an ultimately immersive interaction experience for users.
The unique sounding design prevents sound spillage and improves sound privacy
Another pain point for users is how to reduce the sound spillage of open-ear wearable devices and increase sound privacy, especially in public areas. AAC Technologies’ AR-specific super linear speakers apply an open rear cavity design and are designed with a spill hole and a sound hole. The isolation in low and medium frequencies is higher than that of mainstream AR glasses, which can effectively prevent sound spillage, reduce the impact of the atmosphere, and greatly improve privacy.
For instance, when being worn in public areas such as subways, buses, and in long-distance travel, the speaker can ensure that sound only spreads around the ears to avoid the embarrassing moments of being eavesdropped by people nearby, so users are placed in an immersive world of their own.
As a leader of sensory experience solutions, AAC Technologies has always been seeking the boundary of sensory experiences. In the AR/VR fields, AAC Technologies is committed to becoming a supplier of key technologies that support the next round of the entertainment interaction revolution. With integrated AR/VR solutions that enable the industry, AAC Technologies has realized industry-leading capabilities in acoustic, visual, and haptic services to provide consumers with better sensory experiences.
