This technology generates tactile signals from the audio content that are transmitted through the seat to create a more immersive listening experience.

“At EbM, we understand the value that combining the expertise of different teams can bring to innovative projects,” said Paul Andrews, Director of Sales at EbM.

“Our knowledge of psychoacoustics, combined with an understanding of the challenges posed by different listening environments, are amongst the most important reasons customers choose to work with us. We love a challenge, so whether it’s blue sky thinking for a new product or technology or optimising an existing solution – our engineering can add real commercial advantage. Sometimes we will add the Meridian brand and sometimes we just let the experience speak for itself.”
