Audio Spotlight directional sound technology is used in a wide range of applications in public schools, colleges, and universities throughout the world. In academic settings, hands-free Audio Spotlight school sound systems provide students and educators with touchless directional sound in classrooms, huddle rooms, libraries, and research projects, just to name a few. Our revolutionary, patented directional audio technology that creates sound in a narrow beam, just like light from a flashlight, plays a critical role in elementary, secondary, and higher education settings.

Audio visual collaboration spaces, known as huddle rooms, have increased in popularity as working remotely versus doing so in a central location has recently become part of “the new normal”. In addition to its prevalence in the business world, this trend is also impacting higher education as college programs are implementing efficient ways for professors and students to collaborate in virtual classroom settings – as a result, huddle rooms have become one of the most popular applications for touchless Audio Spotlight technology in academia.

At the University of Arizona, Audio Spotlight directional sound from Holosonics delivered the perfect huddle room solution by enabling students to focus on lessons being taught remotely without having to use cumbersome headphones or earbuds that are unsanitary and unsafe. A typical college huddle room consists of tables located in front of video monitors that produce audio made by standard speaker systems. When directional sound technology is incorporated into the setup, wall-mounted academics directional speakers from Holosonics can be used to deliver sound that can only be heard by students who are seated at a specific table in the huddle room.

In addition to huddle rooms, other applications of Audio Spotlight technology in academia include classroom audio systems, on-campus digital signage and wayfinding, libraries, museums, lounges, game rooms, collaborative spaces, and events. For its use in interactive classrooms, our academics directional audio technology is particularly inspiring in classes that focus on acoustics, music, and sciences such as physics. Audio Spotlight also plays a critical role in a wide range of research projects and other experiments at dozens of academic institutions in the U.S. and throughout the world.
