September 20 2011 - 8:00AM
Business Wire
SRS Labs (NASDAQ:SRSL), the industry leader in surround
sound, audio enhancement, and voice post-processing technologies,
announced today that it has been selected by Rockwell Collins to
integrate SRS WOW HD within their second generation dPAVES™ airline
in-flight entertainment (IFE) system, allowing passengers to enjoy
HD-quality audio for music and movies and get completely immersed
in their in-flight entertainment experience.
Many people don’t realize that there are a lot of similarities
between Rockwell Collins and SRS Labs given that SRS Labs was spun
out of Hughes Aircraft Corporation and that one of our core
technologies was specifically developed for the aerospace industry
to improve voice communications between pilots, quoted Allen H.
Gharapetian, Senior Vice President of Marketing for SRS Labs.
We are very excited to be working with Rockwell Collins to bring
our world-class audio enhancement solutions to their in-flight
entertainment systems and are confident that airline passengers
across the globe will appreciate the added clarity and detail of
their overall audio entertainment experience courtesy of our
award-winning WOW HD technology, he continued.
SRS WOW HD™ optimizes multimedia files to provide an
uncompromised audio experience over headphones, through dynamically
enhanced bass, greater high-frequency clarity and a remarkably
natural and enveloping surround sound stage. The patented
techniques within SRS WOW HD bring out the subtle nuances and
buried sound within the source material to deliver a fuller, richer
and more natural audio experience resulting in drastically improved
clarity and detail.
Integrated into Rockwell Collins’ dPAVES high-definition media
server (HDMS), the virtual surround sound, provided by SRS WOW
HD™, fully immerses passengers in a theater-like experience
that is tunable to any headset. According to Dave Austin, Vice
President and General Manager, Cabin Systems for Rockwell Collins,
WOW HD’s ‘on the fly’ processing allows any media file type to be
output with virtual surround sound over headphones − a first for
the industry – giving passengers a consistent HD entertainment
experience.
