Phitek's V3D V3D Virtual Three Dimensional and LFX LFX Labuan International Financial Exchange LFX Live Fire Exercise LFX Low Profile Form Factor LFX Live Effects LFX Local Effects [TM] technologies allow wireless headset manufacturers to combine industry leading Bluetooth technology with high quality virtual surround sound See 3D audio. and psychoacoustic bass enhancement. CSR's choice to port Phitek's advanced software to BlueCore5-Multimedia provides CSR's customers with access to optimum performance for wireless headset applications, enabling manufacturers to develop high quality Bluetooth headsets. Phitek will be demonstrating its technology on CSR's BlueCore5-Multimedia systems this week at exhibition stand B55463-A in Hall 3 at CeBIT 2007, in Hannover, Germany. Phitek's V3D technology represents the world's most advanced, configurable and complete set of virtual surround sound algorithms. V3D employs patented reverberation techniques coupled with a highly efficient HRTF HRTF Head Related Transfer Function (3D Audio) processing engine yielding a very powerful configuration. Capable of generating an accurate virtual surround sound experience, V3D not only creates the illusion of multi-speakers through headphones, but also synthesizes additional virtual surround sound channels. Phitek's LFX solution creates the psychoacoustic perception of missing fundamentals for the listener, which improves the apparent bass response of any speaker system. Due to the high performance on-chip DSP (1) (Digital Signal Processor) A special-purpose CPU used for digital signal processing applications (see definition #2 below). It provides ultra-fast instruction sequences, such as shift and add, and multiply and add, which are commonly used in math-intensive , CSR's BlueCore5-Multimedia platform is the only Bluetooth platform available which can support such third-party audio enhancement software. In addition, BlueCore5-Multimedia offers superior sound quality with a best-in-class signal to noise ratio of -95dB. BlueCore5-Multimedia also leads the industry for power consumption and radio design. Anthony Murray, Senior Vice President of CSR's Wireless Audio Strategic Business Unit commented, "CSR is committed to providing its customers with the very latest and most advanced technologies on the market. The BlueCore5-Multimedia platform enables CSR to work with the world's leading third-party software vendors in order to bring to market the most complete wireless solutions." Murray, continued, "Headset manufacturers are assured that when using CSR and Phitek technology that their devices will achieve one of the highest levels of usability and sound quality." Mark Donaldson, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. , Phitek, commented, "Consumers now demand high quality voice communication, which forces wireless headset manufacturers to implement the best technology on the market. Through comprehensive understanding of modern control theory and acoustics, Phitek has been able to bring two leading solutions to market. Partnering those with CSR's industry leading Bluetooth silicon provides headset manufacturers with the most optimised and sophisticated solution on the market". -ends- About CSR CSR is the leading global provider of personal wireless technology and its product portfolio covers Bluetooth, GPS, FM receivers and WiFi (IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. 802.11).
