Foxconn and DTS announce DTS CONNECT and DTS Surround Sensation to be integrated into upcoming FOXCONN computer motherboards.
DTS Surround Sensation uses advanced post-processing technology to deliver an incredible surround effect from just two speakers or headphones. The post-processing contains significant psycho-acoustic information that alters human perception, making one believe that sounds actually occur outside the boundaries of the two-speaker system or headphones. Developed with a key understanding of acoustics and years of knowledge in dealing with the properties of sound, DTS Surround Sensation creates a three-dimensional wall of sound that exceeds the limitations of just two speakers for an optimal surround sound experience. DTS Surround Sensation also supplements the weakened stereo image and ambience of digitally compressed audio, while keeping the monaural components (such as solo vocals) unchanged.
A DTS Connect-enabled PC transforms the PC into an action-packed entertainment experience that surrounds the consumer in sound. The DTS Connect system adds two capabilities to the consumer's computer: DTS Interactive(TM) and Neo:PC(TM), for both multi-channel and stereo content. Taking full advantage of the maximum data throughput of the digital interface, DTS Interactive provides a single cable solution (via S/PDIF digital audio output to a DTS-enabled surround sound system), encoding all audio into a DTS-compatible bitstream at 1.5Mbps. Neo:PC based upon DTS' Neo:6 matrix surround technology, transforms any stereo content such as MP3, WMA or CD audio, into a simulated 7.1-channel surround sound experience.
At the FOXCONN booth at CeBIT (Hall 21, Stand C21, March 4-9, Hanover, Germany) the two companies will demonstrate the new DTS enabled motherboards for the desktop computer market, slated to roll out in the latter half of 2008.
