SANYO is developing a chip that can support phone conversations
with just an earphone.
Conversation is possible without taking off your earphones.
● STFD (single transduce full duplex) technology makes a separate microphone unnecessary!
Increased flexibility in end product design
●
Phone conversions are possible even in crowds or noisy environments
Since the sound is picked up directly in the ear, wind and other sounds can be reduced.
●
Better audio quality than bone conduction microphones
Since an even clearer voice sound is possible, it is easy to identify the speaker.
●
New applications in various other wireless markets
Phone conversations are possible without removing one’s earphones when listening to music.
