Personalized HRTF

Whether you’re gaming, creating, or simply enjoying content, Embody’s technology transforms sound to match your individual auditory profile for the best possible experience.

Embody’s core technology is the Immerse AI Personalized HRTF (Head-Related Transfer Function), a cutting-edge and highly accurate spatial sound experience for headphones. By analyzing a simple selfie video, our advanced algorithms interpret how your unique physical features influence the way you perceive sound. This involves modeling how sound interacts with your head, torso, and the intricate structures of your ears before reaching your eardrum. Our process identifies thousands of subtle, abstract features in your ear and head shape, many of which are invisible to the naked eye, to ensure a truly personalized sound profile.

Using neural networks and advanced deep learning, we generate an accurate, true-to-size 3D digital model of your head and ears from your smartphone video. These models are processed through our proprietary Acoustic Scattering Neural Network, which predicts how sound scatters based on your specific anatomy. This involves billions of physics-informed calculations performed in parallel on high-performance GPU and TPU units, delivering a precise representation of your acoustic signature within seconds.

Your Personalized HRTF is entirely unique to you, leveraging cloud computing and parallel processing to deliver unparalleled accuracy and realism. We then optimize this data for specific applications, such as enhancing sound localization in a specific game or transporting you to a virtual studio

Camera-based Head-tracking

With ultra-low latency surpassing that of Apple AirPods, Embody’s camera-based head-tracking technology enhances immersion by capturing the subtle, natural micro-movements of your head. These 3D head movements are key to spatial sound localization, allowing you to intuitively identify the direction and distance of sounds as you would in the real world. Built on unbiased facial recognition models and designed to work seamlessly with standard webcams, this technology ensures accessibility and ease of use, making head-tracking a practical feature for everyone.

Personalized Headphone EQ

Headphones can alter the way sound is experienced because their design and fit interact with the shape of your ears, affecting audio quality. Embody’s Personalized Headphone EQ technology ensures you hear sound exactly as intended by fine-tuning it to your unique anatomy. Using advanced computer vision from our Personalized HRTF, we analyze how your headphones interact with your ears and predict their acoustic response. By correcting for these nonlinearities, our technology compensates for both headphone design and fit, delivering the most accurate and immersive spatial audio experience possible.

Immerse Middleware and API

Embody’s APIs are built to handle large-scale operations and are designed for seamless integration into your applications. With robust infrastructure and scalability at their core, our APIs are optimized for high-performance, low-latency processing, ensuring they can meet the demands of real-time applications like gaming and virtual environments. Whether you're developing for PC, console, or mobile platforms, our infrastructure is production-ready, with proven reliability in diverse use cases.

Hummingbird

At Embody, customization of spatial audio tuning is a core principle. Our application Hummingbird gives developers seamless access to the AI-driven Immerse engine, allowing them to monitor spatial audio tuning with precision and intuitively adjust parameters in real time for a perfectly tailored sound experience.
