Creative SXFI Live Server

[LiLAsN]

Can you guys take a guess at what this thing does?

Based on the design, and the tagline, "to make something that would benefit everyone. WORK. LEARN. PLAY."

It could be a wireless streaming box that can play music from various music streaming site or even your phone's bluetooth music and connect to either wireless active speakers and/or to the now more prevalent bluetooth headphones and earphones like the Apple airpods and Samsung earbuds?

That's my guess based on the look with no other buttons in sight.

Or it could be something like a receiver that connects to eARC and connect to all Bluetooth headphones for the whole family to enjoy 1 movie without having speakers at home? Who knows. But again, the tagline suggests it could be the first option.

Still it is not clear what it does exactly.

stream live events with binaural technique (mic on dummy head) should give very good immersive viewing experience for theatre fans or concert goers.

don't need to use so-called sxfi

put on any headphone and watch the "virtual barber" youtube video if you don't believe.

the same can also achieve with sennheiser's ambeo smart headset wore on one of the audience.

Re-encodes the audio recorded in the theater using HRTF ( https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-related_transfer_function ) to make it seem as if the online audience is actually there In the theater..

using dummy head is a better way, no dsp needed, no software error, no algo error.

dummy head is the best way and easiet to encode HRTF.

it is not new, many live performances are streamed or recorded this way.
