Razer took to the stage at CES 2023 to unveil 'Project Carol,' its latest innovation in the gaming chair and office chair space. This chair offers a unique feature that its current Iskur and Enki chairs do not, which is near-field surround sound and haptic feedback.
The head cushion on this chair features two 7.1 surround sound speakers that deliver pure near-field surround sound with unparalleled accuracy and quality. This combines with the headrest's haptic feedback system to increase the immersion by delivering real-time haptics that represent the sounds being played.
Razer's Project Carol gaming chair connects to a PC device via the 2.4 GHz wireless band, and lasts for eight hours on a single charge, allowing gamers to enjoy seamless high-quality audio for an entire, or multiple, gaming sessions on a single charge.S
