DevCon 2020 Presentation, ft. Usound: MEMS Speakers - Enabling innovative and unique audio systems
Channel: STMicroelectronics
Date: 2020-11-24

When LED was introduced to the market, it revolutionized the industry, influencing both B2B and B2C businesses worldwide. By now every consumer in the world now knows the term “LED”.

MEMS micro speakers are on the brink of having the same impact on the acoustic devices market. Boasting a substantially decreased size and weight, increased robustness and energy efficiency, all with competitive performance, this new technology is the ideal enhancement of existing sound modules and loudspeakers.

In this presentation, we will cover a new application that allows for maximum freedom for the industrial design of free-field loudspeakers. By using physically flexible parts one can design loudspeaker shapes previously thought impossible.
