How Auracast™ broadcast audio will broaden audio accessibility for everyone
Presenter: Henry Wong, Director of market development at Bluetooth SIG
Auracast™ broadcast audio, a capability from Bluetooth® technology, is poised to expand audio accessibility by standardizing public audio delivery. This innovation allows hearing aid users and the general public to connect effortlessly to broadcast sound sources in venues such as theaters, museums, and lecture halls. For the audiology community, understanding Auracast™ is essential, as it introduces a powerful new category of assistive listening system (ALS) that promises to reduce barriers and promote greater auditory inclusion for every patient.
