Waves Audio has announced the launch of the Nx Head Tracker via a Kickstarter campaign to make the immersive 3D audio experience a reality.
Earlier this year, Waves Audio announced Nx, a groundbreaking software technology that applies panoramic audio imaging to stereo headphones, opening the door to applications in virtual reality, augmented reality, 3D mixing and much more.
Waves Nx lets users hear the same natural depth, natural reflections, and panoramic imaging heard from speakers in a physical room, but on headphones. With Waves Nx, music, movies and games are heard in a revolutionary way as they take on a new dimension of immersive 3D reality – and it all happens inside the headphones you already own.
The possibilities are endless, and Waves has decided to put significant R&D emphasis on Nx to further develop the technology.
Now Waves is reaching out to the audio community to get involved via a Kickstarter campaign beginning June 22nd. The campaign aims to raise $200,000 USD by August 1st, 2016. For a complete list of the Nx rewards, check the Kickstarter page.
