Bring your creative ideas to life with a Focusonics® Directional Speaker

Be innovative with the soundscapes you create through the illusion directional audio is emanating from a different source of your choice, as opposed to the speaker itself.

A lot of the sound we hear is reflective, but we want to take it a step further and enable users to be precise with the sound they reflect courtesy of direct reflecting speakers from our directional speaker range.

Impress your audience with direct surface reflecting speakers

The narrow sound beam of the Focusonics® directional speaker can be directed towards transparent screens, smart mirrors, holograms, etc. to create the effect of a virtual source. It will appear as if the sound is originating from this transparent screen or mirror rather than the speaker itself, providing a much more immersive experience for the consumer.

Perfect for various indoor applications

The direct surface reflecting speaker can be utilized for various directional sound applications. Whichever industry you are operating in, if the system is set up correctly to create a virtual source effect then you have free reign to dictate your messaging or choice of sound.

The following are all examples of where a Focusonics directional speaker can be used to reflect sound off hard surfaces during indoor applications:

  • Galleries
  • Museums
  • Art exhibitions
  • Digital signage
  • Meditation spaces
  • Spas
  • Theatres
  • Haunted house entertainment venues

You can set up numerous speakers with narrow sound beams directed to cause multiple sound reflections to produce the illusion that the sounds are emanating from different places in the room.

For instance, in art exhibitions you can elicit sounds of nature to be striking in different parts of the room as visitors walk through, helping to create an immersive and surprising feel that cannot be captured from the use of conventional loudspeakers.

The speaker is not designed for outdoor use or music with a high quality bass sound. Feel free to get in touch if you want to discuss your particular application in mind.

Overall, there is a wide scope of opportunity to utilize the innovative Focusonics® Model A or Model B direct reflecting sound speaker in order to help bring creative ideas to life through directional audio technology. Get a better idea of which speaker is best for your application below:

What are Directional Speakers?

Focusonics® directional speakers work in a completely different way to conventional loudspeakers. Our range of speakers generate directional audio in a fixed and accurate shape, delivering the sound with precision to a targeted location. Not only is the audio delivered with clarity, crucially it does not increase the ambient noise within the nearby surroundings.
