INFOCOMM, LAS VEGAS — June 8, 2016 — Listen Technologies (booth C10519), a leading provider of assistive listening products for more than 17 years, announced enhancements to its line of ListenWiFi products at InfoComm 2016. ListenWiFi is a second generation pro audio solution designed to enhance any video environment by providing audio wirelessly to a personal smartphone. ListenWiFi is ideal for venues with video panels, projectors or video walls such as fitness centers and commercial, corporate or university facilities.
ListenWiFi delivers unprecedented audio quality, manageability and flexibility. Customers download the app, connect to the ListenWiFi network and tune into the channel displayed on the TV. The second generation of ListenWiFi includes the ability to easily manage audio channels and the app contents via the cloud.
New ListenWiFi enhancements include:
- Multiple access points: Allows venues to expand the number of users from 60 to more than 1,000 as well as support larger venues.
- Twice the channels: Gives venues or facilities the ability to set up to 24 stereo channels or 48 mono channels, depending on the application.
- International support: Support for international languages allows venues to program channels in their native languages while allowing users to select the language of their choice for navigating menus.
- Mobile app integration: SDK (Software Development Kit) or Deep Linking allows venues to offer more ways to access the app.
ListenWiFi uses its own Wireless Access Points for the Wi-Fi Personal Listening network. In addition, ISP connectivity provides internet access for listeners connected to the Wi-Fi Personal Listening network as well as providing automatic software upgrades, ensuring the system is always up to date.
“The new ListenWiFi enhancements demonstrate Listen Technologies’ commitment to providing the most innovative solutions,” said Russ Gentner, CEO of Listen Technologies. “ListenWiFi is the simplest to install and most robust WiFi solution available, and Listen Technologies is the most trusted authority in the professional audio industry. We provide the support and design expertise to help venues maximize their investment.”
