Audio solutions provider Audivo has launched the world’s first system-on-module based on the VibeHub™ home networked audio solution from CSR plc (LSE: CSR; NASDAQ: CSRE). Audivo Multiroom Audio Solution (AMAS) is a turnkey solution which allows ODMs to quickly develop and easily integrate networked audio capabilities into their products.
The VibeHub platform which was launched earlier this year can be used to build wireless speakers, intelligent audio adaptors, networked audio amplifiers and a wide range of other connected audio products. Using the VibeHub SyncLock™ technology, these devices can pull content from multiple sources including digital media servers and mobile devices, and simultaneously distribute the audio around the home in a tightly synchronised manner ensuring that there is no audible delay when walking between zones in the home.
VibeHub’s extensible networking capabilities enable interoperability with a wide range of today’s popular wireless streaming protocols, including Apple’s AirPlay, which means that consumers aren’t limited to buying into a specific ecosystem. VibeHub already supports analogue input, input from UPnP and DLNA sources via Ethernet/WLAN, as well as Bluetooth with CSR aptX® coding technologies for high-quality audio. AMAS builds on these features by including capability for Internet and DAB radio and premium music services, as well as a fully featured iOS and Android app for smartphones and tablets.
