AMBEO Smart Headset Can Capture “3D” Audio

(For Apple iOS devices ONLY)

They look like larger-than-average earbuds with microphones built into both left and right.

And since these microphones are right where your ears are, they are able to capture a “3D” kind of audio soundscape.

If you’d like to use these and incorporate some “3D” sound in your podcast, keep in mind that you will have to publish your audio in stereo. And for listeners to get the full “3D” experience, they will have to listen in stereo, preferable with headphones or earbuds.

I would love to try these, but until I can think of a specific use for them I won’t buy them. Plus, if outdoors, I’m assuming there will be potential noise and distortion from wind, since these don’t seem to have any shielding from the wind. And of course I don’t have an iPhone.

From their website:

What is Binaural Recording? Your ears and brain work together to create a 3D audio landscape of your surroundings. The AMBEO Smart Headset captures this landscape with high quality microphones utilize the actual outer structure of your ears to replicate the same 3D sound image that you hear naturally.
