Noveto Systems is introducing the first-of-its-kind dynamic focused sound solution with Smart Audio, which sets itself apart as a disruptive system that's capable of precisely generating sound to a user's ears. With a proprietary smart algorithm, sophisticated beamforming technic, face detection and tracking capabilities, Noveto Smart Audio locates a user's ears in space and beans acoustic technology in their direction to generate "tiny sound bubbles next to the user's ears." In this way, even when a person's head is moving, the sound bubbles follow to create a rich sensory experience.

In 2021, Noveto aims to mass-produce its system as a standalone peripheral sound bar or embedded by third-party devices—like smart TVs, computers, conference call systems and other consumer electronic devices.
