WTF?!<\/strong> Neural network AI is seeing various implementations these days: text generation, image reconstruction, facial recognition, legal defense, and more. Razer thinks AI can solve a fundamental cost-quality compromise between soundbars and surround sound systems. Its latest audio product combines multiple cutting-edge technologies to provide immersive sound in an unobtrusive package. <\/p>\n

At CES 2023, Razer unveiled<\/a> a new sound system that combines beamforming with an AI neural network to try to offer the quality of a surround sound setup in a soundbar. It does this by combining AI, head-tracking, beamforming, and spatial audio.<\/p>\n

Razer’s first soundbar to use this system \u2013 the Leviathan V2 Pro \u2013 contains IR cameras that can see the position of the user’s head. It sends that information to a neural-network processor, which tracks the head position in real-time to know where to direct its beamforming sound.<\/p>\n

Beamforming combines signal wavelengths in a way that enhances desired signals and cancels out unwanted signals for clearer reception. It’s typically associated with antenna arrays but can also beam sound directly to a person’s ears. Razer’s AI-based head-tracking should allow this even as users move their heads.<\/p>\n
