Voxeet was a VoIP web conferencing software[1] that used 3D high definition voice technology to produce immersive sound. It was available for Windows, iPhone and Android.[2] In 2012, it won the DemoGod Award at DEMO Spring '12.[3] On April 1st 2019 Dolby Labs acquired Voxeet for an undisclosed amount.

Technology

In a crowded, noisy room, the brain can isolate specific sounds and focus on decoding relevant information while disregarding other sounds, a phenomenon also called the cocktail party effect.

Traditional conferencing software uses one microphone, losing this location information and requiring listeners to distinguish who is speaking, as well as what they are saying.

Voxeet uses multiple microphones to reproduce natural location mechanisms, creating a virtual 3D audio space that makes listening easier and less taxing.[4]

Features

Voxeet allows up to 8 participants to have online conferences with high definition voice and 3D sound on Windows computers, and iPhone and Android phones. Participants use headsets to experience immersion. The system provides:[5]

  • VoiP HD 3D Sound
  • Visual Cues to know who is speaking
  • Mobile phone integration with one-click transfer
