Embedded application follows on the news of first global HDTV brand licensing WiSA E software for TV application
The Amlogic S905X4 represents a significant milestone in audio SoCs (system on a chip), as it enables simultaneous video and audio decoding while seamlessly supporting external applications running in the background. This revolutionary advancement, combined with operating systems like Android which ensure perfect synchronization of video and audio, provides consumers with a flexible and highly integrated audio experience.
Systems that embed WiSA E software are also able to take advantage of WiSA Connect, a pivotal part of the product solution. WiSA Connect offers a common API interface with low overhead to any SoC, enabling flexibility in scaling and forming an integral part of delivering an interoperable ecosystem for TVs, Set-Top Boxes, Mobile devices, and WiSA E-enabled speakers.
WiSA E, with its robust capabilities over Wi-Fi, surpasses Bluetooth and other wireless protocols in various aspects:
- Intelligence with WiSA Connect: Unlike Bluetooth, WiSA E includes intelligence in the form of "WiSA Connect," a server that manages the network on the local SoC/OS over standard Wi-Fi, significantly reducing integration costs.
- Multichannel Solution: While Bluetooth is limited to stereo on Android, WiSA E offers a multichannel solution.
- Simplified User Experience: WiSA E simplifies the user experience, allowing WiSA E speakers to play audio from different Android devices and switch instantly with a push of a button.
- Robustness and Scalability: WiSA E operates in the 2.4GHz or 5GHz spectrum and can easily scale with the latest Wi-Fi standards/SoCs to 6GHz and beyond, providing better robustness with more audio channels.
- Cable-Free Convenience: WiSA E eliminates the need for unsightly HDMI or optical cables, particularly beneficial when TVs are wall-mounted.
- Future-Proof Technology: WiSA E is designed to evolve with advancements in audio technology. This futureproofing ensures that users can enjoy the benefits of the latest audio innovations without needing to replace their entire audio system.
"The key to this revolutionary audio experience lies in WiSA E's ability to adapt, connect, and deliver exceptional sound quality in the world of wireless audio,” said Tony Parker, VP of Technical Marketing and Strategy. “Imagine the versatility of listening to your TV/STB WiSA E speakers then instantly being able to change audio sources to your Android phone for a video call or YouTube video. This is the kind of versatility that consumers are demanding.”
