Product Overview and Features

Audio Radar is an innovative technology designed to enhance the gaming experience and provide optimal lighting for video conferencing or streaming. It is a device that serves two primary functions:

  1. For gamers, it acts as an immersive sound-to-light conversion system. Audio Radar processes in-game audio and converts it into corresponding visual cues on LED lightbars. These visual cues allow players to "see" the direction and location of sounds within the game environment, providing a more immersive gaming experience.
  2. For video conferencing or streaming, Audio Radar serves as a professional-grade selfie lighting studio. With the ability to generate up to 16.2 million colors, it offers customizable lighting options, helping users to present themselves in the best light possible during their online interactions.

With its advanced audio processing algorithms and customizable LED light display, Audio Radar is a unique addition to your gaming setup or work-from-home station, offering benefits for both entertainment and professional use.

1. Enhanced Gaming Experience: Audio Radar's unique sound-to-light conversion system provides an immersive gaming experience. It allows players to "see" in-game audio cues, giving them an additional layer of interaction with the game environment.

2. Equalizes Gaming for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing: Audio Radar levels the playing field for deaf and hard-of-hearing gamers by visualizing in-game sounds. This technology allows them to compete effectively, offering a more inclusive gaming experience.

3. Improves Situational Awareness: Audio Radar helps gamers improve their situational awareness, especially in games that require keen audio perception. This feature is particularly beneficial in first-person shooter games where pinpointing the direction and distance of in-game sounds can provide a competitive advantage.

4. Safe Volume Levels: With Audio Radar, gamers no longer need to play at high volumes to detect important audio cues. By visualizing these cues, Audio Radar promotes safer volume levels, reducing the risk of hearing damage over time.

5. Professional Lighting for Streaming or Video Conferencing: Outside of gaming, Audio Radar doubles as a professional-grade selfie lighting studio. It allows users to customize their lighting conditions for video conferencing or streaming, presenting them in the best light possible for their online interactions.

Audio Radar's sound-to-light conversion system for gaming is designed to provide an immersive experience by visually translating the direction and amplitude (volume) of in-game audio events. Here's how it works:

  1. Audio Processing: Audio Radar receives in-game audio and processes it in real-time. The system's advanced algorithms are designed to detect the direction and amplitude of audio events, such as gunfire, explosions, vehicle noises, and more.
  2. Sound-to-Light Conversion: Once the direction and amplitude of an audio event are determined, Audio Radar translates this information into visual indicators. These indicators are displayed on strategically placed LED lightbars around your gaming monitor or TV screen, illuminating in correspondence with the direction and intensity of the sounds within the game.
  3. Visual Indication: The lights on the LED lightbars correspond to the direction of the sound in the game. If a sound originates from the right within the game, the right LED lightbar will light up. If the sound comes from behind and to the left, the bottom left lightbar will illuminate, and so on. The brightness of the light corresponds to the amplitude of the sound - louder sounds will result in brighter lights.

Audio Radar is particularly effective in games that incorporate accurate 7.1 surround sound, as it provides the most precise visual representation of the gaming soundscape. In games with 5.1 or 2.1 surround sound, Audio Radar remains effective, though the sound-to-light conversion might be slightly less precise.

Keep in mind that the performance of Audio Radar can also be influenced by the game's environmental size, the number of active players, and the types of background sounds present. For optimal results, it's recommended to use Audio Radar in medium to larger maps, and with fewer players in smaller maps. Also, reducing unnecessary background sounds or isolating chat sounds in your game settings can enhance the effectiveness of Audio Radar.

Please note that while Audio Radar currently does not detect types of sounds, this feature is in our development pipeline and will be part of future enhancements.

While Audio Radar is a versatile and useful tool for gamers across platforms, it's important to be aware of its specific capabilities and limitations when used with PlayStation consoles. Here are the key details:

Capabilities:

  • High Resolution Pass-Through: Audio Radar is capable of passing through any resolution sent by a PlayStation, including up to 4K at 120hz. This ensures that gamers will not sacrifice visual quality while using Audio Radar.

Limitations:

  • Single Audio Output Limitation: PlayStation consoles have a limitation that prevents game audio from being sent to both a gaming headset and Audio Radar simultaneously. Users need to choose one output for game audio.

Usage:

  • Audio Output Configuration: To use Audio Radar with PlayStation, gamers must configure the console settings to output the game audio to Audio Radar. This 7-channel audio output is what the Audio Radar system uses to activate the LED light bars.
  • Alternate Sound Sources: When using Audio Radar, gamers will depend on the sound output from their TV, AV system, sound bar, or built-in speakers on a computer monitor. The sound is carried via the HDMI audio/video signal passed from the PlayStation, through Audio Radar, and finally to the display and audio device.
  • Game Chat Compatibility: Even when game audio is output through Audio Radar, gamers can still use their PlayStation-compatible headset for game chat, but won't be able to hear the game audio through the headset.
  • Auxiliary Audio Connection: Audio Radar includes a 3.5mm audio connection on the front of the device that can be connected to a headset or external speakers. This connection is solely for game audio and does not support game chat.

Audio Radar transforms into a professional-grade selfie lighting studio when set to 'Stream Mode'. It's designed to create ideal lighting conditions for video conferences or streaming, ensuring that users look their best during online interactions. Here's how it works:

  1. Versatile Lighting Options: Audio Radar's LED lightbars can generate 16.2 million colors, providing a wide range of lighting options. This versatility allows users to customize their lighting based on personal preferences, the natural light in their environment, or the mood they want to set for their video stream.
  2. Optimized Lighting Placement: By strategically placing the LED lightbars around the monitor or screen, users can avoid harsh shadows and achieve balanced, flattering lighting. This is often preferable to relying on overhead room lights or natural light, which can cause glare or uneven lighting.
  3. User-Friendly Adjustments: With easy-to-use controls, users can adjust the color and brightness of the LED lightbars to suit their needs. This could mean choosing a warm, inviting light for a relaxed video chat, or a bright, cool light for professional video conferences.
  4. Real-Time Adjustments: As lighting conditions can change throughout the day, users can make real-time adjustments to ensure they always have the best lighting. Whether the sun is setting or a room light is turned on, users can quickly adjust their Audio Radar lighting to maintain a professional appearance.

By combining advanced technology with user-friendly controls, Audio Radar's professional-grade selfie lighting studio function provides users with a versatile tool to improve their video conferencing or streaming experience.

Audio Radar works exceptionally well with games that incorporate accurate 7.1 surround sound. These games provide the most precise audio cues, allowing Audio Radar to create a more accurate and immersive sound-to-light conversion. Examples of these types of games include popular titles like PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) and Call of Duty: Warzone.

In addition to 7.1 surround sound, the effectiveness of Audio Radar also depends on the size of the game's map and the number of active players. Medium to larger maps with fewer players often work better, as this allows the sound-to-light conversion to be more discernible. Furthermore, games with distinct and critical sound cues, like footsteps, gunshots, and vehicle sounds, enhance the usefulness of Audio Radar.

While it performs best with 7.1 surround sound, Audio Radar can also work effectively with games that only support 5.1 or 2.1 surround sound. Although the sound-to-light conversion may be slightly less precise in these cases, players can still gain an enhanced gaming experience. Examples of such games include titles like Counter-Strike: Global Offensive.

Please note that while Audio Radar can enhance many gaming experiences, it may be less effective in games with a lot of background sounds or constant in-game chatter. For the best experience, we recommend turning off chat or separating chat from your main HDMI signal, as well as reducing unnecessary environment sound effects in your game settings.

Several factors in the gaming environment can influence the performance of Audio Radar:

  1. Surround Sound Support: Games with 7.1 surround sound compatibility provide the most accurate sound-to-light conversion. While Audio Radar works effectively with 5.1 or 2.1 surround sound games, the accuracy of the directional cues may be slightly less precise.
  2. Map Size and Player Count: The size of the game map and the number of active players can also affect Audio Radar's performance. Medium to larger maps with fewer players in smaller areas generally offer the best experience, as more distinct directional audio cues can be picked up. In contrast, smaller maps with many players and overlapping sounds can cause the LED lights to trigger frequently, making it harder to discern specific directional cues.
  3. Background Noise: The presence of excessive background noise, such as in-game chatter or environmental sound effects, may interfere with the effective interpretation of important audio cues. Isolating chat from the main HDMI signal going to Audio Radar or turning down unnecessary sound effects in the game settings can enhance the effectiveness of Audio Radar.
  4. Audio Settings: The audio settings of the gaming system can also affect Audio Radar's performance. For example, if the audio output is set to stereo instead of surround sound, the accuracy of the sound-to-light conversion may be reduced.

Remember, for the best Audio Radar experience, it's advisable to consider these factors and adjust your gaming environment accordingly.

Optimizing your use of Audio Radar in gaming involves considering several factors:

  1. Game's Audio Surround Sound: Audio Radar works best with games that utilize accurate 7.1 surround sound. With such games, you'll be able to get a more precise sound-to-light conversion. Games that use 5.1 or 2.1 surround sound will still work, but they might be slightly less precise.
  2. Map Size and Player Count: For the best experience, use Audio Radar in medium to large maps. If you're playing in a smaller map, try to keep the number of players low. This is because when multiple sounds overlap, such as in a crowded team death match, the LED lightbars may not provide helpful information as they will be continuously active.
  3. In-game Audio Settings: Adjust the in-game audio settings to optimize Audio Radar's effectiveness. Try to isolate chat from the main HDMI signal going to Audio Radar and your TV or Monitor. You can do this on most consoles, such as the Xbox. This ensures only gameplay sounds are processed by Audio Radar. Also, consider reducing the volume of non-essential background sounds in your game settings.
  4. Lighting Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity of the LED lightbars to match your preference and the ambient light conditions in your gaming space. This can help make the visual cues more noticeable and less distracting.
  5. Equipment Setup: Make sure your gaming console or PC is correctly connected to the Audio Radar system. Follow the installation guide carefully to ensure optimal performance.
  6. Software Updates: Always keep your Audio Radar firmware up-to-date. Developers frequently release updates to improve performance and add new features.

By keeping these recommendations in mind, you can optimize your Audio Radar usage and elevate your gaming experience.
